[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did you get there? I've lost 28 and would like to lose another 5-8 lbs and have been stuck ages. In the last 2 weeks I've been seriously shorting calories and stepped up workouts. So far I see only ONE pound off. Hoping it's the start of a trend, but I need some motivation. I'm starving![/quote]

It is tough, especially the vanity pounds.  The first 5 came off over 2-3 weeks, then I was stuck for a couple weeks, then the last 5 came off over another 2 weeks.  I was already pretty low on calories, I think, and working out 3-4 times per week.  Maybe what did it was I was stricter on the weekends, which tend to be harder to be strict over.  I have three young kids so visits to apple orchards (cider donuts!) and eating out while on our weekend adventures was the only place I could see where I had room to make better choices.  I did IF the past couple weekends only (dropped breakfast or lunch, depending what we were up to) and when out to eat, I still ordered food I love but was very careful about the portion I ate.

Now all my clothes are too big.  It is amazing what 10 lbs can do.  [/quote]
