    The only way to get it off and keep it off, is to track and stay at your goals forever. :flowerforyou:

    change things up. change something in your food intake or add/delete an exercise. more exercise time+ upping calories?? I'm not an expert but these things work for me.

    What is your weekly loss set on MFP? I am about 3 pounds from goal but when I got to the 10 pounds to go mark, I had to change my settings on MFP to only lose 0.5 pounds/week. I was losing NOTHING anymore at 1 pound/week setting. Many of us struggle with the last few pounds, they like to stick! Even with a 0.5 pound/week setting, some weeks I lose 1 pound, others just a few ounces.
