in Health and Weight Loss
Its seems super easy at the beginning once you get your mind right to start an exercise program and healthy choices/clean eating at the beginning (because you shocked your body and made a lifestyle change). What have you done for the last 10 or less lbs when you are probably at or close to your healthy weight range? I have fluctuated with the same 5 lbs :angry: since July.

What got you to your goal??? Please share.

    Without seeing your food diary i cant see what youre eating that you could improve on/switch up.. but what worked for me with the last 5-10 lbs was starting to finally strength train on a regular basis. i had been running/walking a ton for a year and got thin but wasnt losing or toning anymore, so i started Jilian Michaels 30 day shred in july and did it for about a month and now do my own strength training about twice a week and try to still fit in 30 day shred because its a killer workout!

    It's all in the diet...especially w/the last few pounds...you really have to tighten up on the eating....cut out some things...eat cleaner...it's easier in the beginning, but those last few pounds of body fat is stubborn...plus working out should get there. Try going two full weeks w/just clean eating and see if that will help you out

    Lower carbs. Didn't eat all exercise calories. Lots of running. Weights.

    Though I haven't gotten there (yet) for me I believe the culprit is not eating clean enough (which I'm trying to fix). You can do it!

    So like you I fluctuated between 132-135 For months... What I did was lowered my calories back down and changed my macros. More protein (which is needed for lifting) Less carbs and adequate fat. I finally broke my plateau. I have 7 pounds to go.
