    I started my journey about 5 years ago. It was a long sometimes lonely road but now I am with eyesight of goal. I hope to hit goal weight with zero loss of muscle so I am giving myself 90 days to lose last 10 pounds of extra fat.

      I have about 6-7 more lbs! I too am hoping to do most of that in fat loss. Got my body fat tested yesterday and am at 22.5%, which is pretty good for a female, but ai am hoping to see a lower number next month!

      7 lbs to go. They are stubborn lbs too. They just want to hang around and keep me company.

      I too hit my first goal and now have 8 pounds to my ulitmate goal. Those too are also going to be hard to loose.

      I am within 5lbs, but wouldn't mind if I dropped a few extra off the total weight loss. :happy:

      I got 10 lbs to go as well but 4-5% body fat to cut, which to me is more important.

      Yep, I'm only a few pounds away.

      I'm still about 10lbs away and have 30.8% body fat, which I really care about more than the weight, sigh. It's stuck.

      I have about 5 lbs to go. Good luck to you all!

      Yeah i'm around there. 10-15 maybe. But that's a temporary stop before I start adding mass again. I may go for a cleaner sort of bulk the next time around.

      8 more pounds SHOULD do it. I'm just worried that once again I'll hit that goal and still have more to lose. But I can't be much smaller than 180, I'm not looking to be scrawny. I've got a fire test to take and strength is more important than being slim.

      I am down 73lbs with 5-9 more to go :)

      I'd like to lose 7 more. These last 10 are the HARDEST of the 80 to lose! I'm also training for a half marathon so I keep gaining and losing the same two pounds... GRRRR!

      Greetings! I have my last 10 pounds and they have stuck like glue. However reality check on my part, I have cheated 2-3 days a week, exercise regularly, and pretty good diet. I need to lower calories and STOP cheating to get to my goal. Good luck to those 10 last pounds!

      Started on here last April with a goal to lose 10 lbs, which I did by August. Decided to aim for 3 more lbs but haven't lost a thing yet. I'm really working on strength training and toning since my weight isn't budging. I turn 41 in 2 weeks!

      I have about 10 - the home stretch has been frustrating and long, though!

      about 11 pounds away from goal weight, although I want to lose 11 lbs of fat and GAIN muscle, so I'm not sure what my actual ideal weight would be!

      I am 9 lbs away. I started the journey in 2001. I went from 205 to 159. I have fluctuated up and down between 163 and 155 for years. I am training to get to 150 and stay there.
