The Final 10 Pounds

Bump. I can't be the only one!

I have 10 pounds to lose to get to my goal weight. I am currently at 125 pounds and would like to weigh around 115, I am 5.2. It seems like my body wants to hang at this weight, I don't feel comfortable, especially with my stomach.

Any suggestions?

I would suggest weight lifting if you don't already. I am in a similar position as you in that I want to lower my body fat percentage and finally get rid of the last of my stomach and thigh flab. My plan of attack is as follows.

1. Heavy weight lifting - I've been dabbling in New Rules of Lifting, but am switching over to Stronglifts 5x5 tomorrow. When I lack gym access, I make sure that I include some strength training in my routine (yoga mostly, but occasionally I do POP Pilates videos at blogilates.com). Strength training can't be underestimated because I really want to maintain the lean body mass that I already have.
2. Clean eating - I eat a lot of protein and healthy fats and very little processed carbohydrates. I don't eat bread or grains, but haven't been able to give up fruit yet. I hear that fruit consumption really hinders a flat stomach (from blogilates.com and also a magazine article about Eva Longoria), but I love fruit. I might try to cut down my fruit consumption soon. My diet is paleo-influenced, but I wouldn't say it is a paleo or primal diet. I definitely do not eat breads, grains, or pasta though. That's a non-negotiable. I also don't really have cheat meals and consume ~1500 calories per day (typically more).
3. High water intake - If you are dehydrated, your body stores water causing your stomach to appear puffy. I picked this tip up on these forums so I stay plenty hydrated (at the very minimum eight cups per day) so I don't have to worry about appearing fatter than I actually am.
4. Cardio - I am going to try to fit in cardio at least 6x per week and maintain a very active lifestyle (for example, walking and bike riding) in order to continue losing weight. I typically eat back exercise calories from explicit workouts, but don't count walking as an exercise unless it is a hike with inclines or something.

I'm also 5'2, for the record.

I did it about 2 mos ago. I am 5 ft2" and now weigh 110. And this is what I did: started following the primal blueprint - eat more protein and less carbs!
I cut out high fiber everything- bagels, tortillas, bread, oatmeal. Keep your carbs under 100 and your protein around 100. I was and still am exercising 3-4xs a week. I have been doing that for as long as I can remember (I'm 48).
You can still have fruit- just don't eat it all day long like I used to. half a banana and a half cup of berries is plenty. YOu can have as much veggies as you want.
You can eat fish, chicken,ham, eggs, red meat (lean), nuts,and use almond butter instead of peanut butter.
Dairy- replace flavored yogurt with greek non fat plain and add cinnamon/berries/ honey or art. sweetener. I used the unsweetened almond milks (choc and vanilla) for my protein shakes. I use real butter and cheese.

and repeat after me, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" Phill. 4:13
that includes eating healthy and exercising!

I am a total all-day fruit nommer; I ate 5 apples alone yesterday, haha. I assure you that's a crazy day though. It was my last day in my dorm and I was running seriously low on food. Thank you for your advice though. It is immensely helpful and I will assimilate it into my arsenal. I know I really need to cut out the vanilla Chobani and switch to plain ASAP. Thanks for the kick in the butt on that one.

Why do you suggest almond butter over peanut butter? I just got a Vitamix for my birthday and was thinking about making my own nut butters. I'd love to hear anyone's suggestions/opinions about that.

All the best to the "10 pounders" That is my first goal, then we shall see. I really just want to exchange my 10 lbs of fat for 10 lbs of muscle. :-)

You and I both.
