in Health and Weight Loss
Anyone else working hard on their last 10-15lbs? I have 15 to go to reach my goal weight, and I feel like I've been hovering around the same weight forever! Any advice on what can I do to really shed those last few pounds?

    This is the time to pay close attention to your diet. Eating as clean as possible will help.

    Hi!

    I also have about 15 lbs to reach my goal weight and feel that I have been hovering around the same weight forever too! I think have gained and lost the same 5 lbs for a couple years now...

    I did a cleanse a couple weeks ago and shed almost 6 lbs and have kept it off. Whoo Hoo! It wasn't anything crazy, just cutting out processed foods etc. I also switched up my workouts and I think that helped shock my body back into weight loss. Plus logging everything into myfitnesspal helps me stay real with myself.

    Let me know if you want some info on the cleanse I did, work outs etc. and I'd be happy to share. Would also love to hear what you are doing that you are finding success in. I am determined to finish out 2011 at my goal weight!

    Have a great day:smile:

    I'm having the same problem... I'm 5-7 pounds from goal and have lost only 1.5 in 3 weeks... Exercising daily, no cheating, etc. I'm thinking that I've been under calorie goal (I wasn't eating exercise calories- not intentionally, but 'cause I wan't really hungry)... so this week I'm going to focus on eating all my calories... we'll see...

    For me I have about 15 to go so far so good but it seems to be taking longer I have been losing about 2.7 pounds per week on avg. and I am still losing about 1 to 1.5 pounds per week which is still good but it feels like this last 20 pounds are going to take forever even though my spread sheet says I should be at my goal by Oct 15th give or take a few days. I think mostly because I wanted a certain body type by the time I got to my goal weight and I don't see how my body will be like I want it too in just 15 pounds but we will see.

    really tips depend on a lot of different factors, length of diet, size of deficit you've been running, macros of said diet, last time you've eaten over maintenance, how much exercise you've been doing etc etc
