Am I done?

Well it has been 3 weeks with no loss. I am stuck at 164. I am 5'9. I was wondering if that is it? I would love to lose 10 more pounds but I don't see it coming off. I excerise 2 hours almost everyday. I lift weights,do pilates and yoga. Maybe my muscles are getting bigger. lol Anyway just need a few words of encouragement from you wise women. Thanks, Love this board. Lianna

Lianna, I think we're all going to see big wait times in our weight loss these days. We're approaching that year anniversary. But I'm betting you can get those last 10 pounds off that you want. My friend who had sugery two and a half years ago now had figured she was landing at 165 right around a year and didn't expect to loose anymore. But six months later she was down at 155. I always remember that people say the last 10 pounds is the absolute hardest to get rid of. So keep doing what you're doing...they'll come off! Corinna Q

Have you had your body fat composition tested? You may be at a good weight where you are, but just don't know it! With that said, I think that you absolutely can take off the last 10 pounds. It's the hardest 10 pounds to lose, but you can do it. Try mixing up your routine a little. Our bodies get used to the same thing all of the time. I was getting nowhere but started going to the gym in the morning instead of the evening and started doing the eliptical almost daily and I finally lost a little.

I absolutely agree with Corinna and Wanda. You can get 10 more pounds off. It will probably be a little slower but you are not done till YOU say you are done. Keep up the exercise and keep eating right. Hugs, Valorie
