Weight Loss Help

In the beginning of the year I finally felt like I could just try to change my eating habits (cut way back on processed foods, sugars, junk) and eat more fruits and veggies and fiber rich carbs. I felt better…

Fitbit Calorie Adjustments

Trying to Lose last 10
Hello, I've lost about 45 lbs since last August. I'm mostly happy with where I'm at, but after 4 kids I have more fat than I'd like around my waist, hips,thighs and arms. I'm wondering if there is a good way to get this last bit off finally or if it's mostly going to be an exercise thing to tighten it up.
