The last half stone

I know this will depend on where you are planning to stop but I’m heading for mid healthy bmi so 22 - 22.5 ish.

Ive lost 3 stone at roughly a pound a week but ground to a halt. I’m happy with the way I look now at 23.4 but my waist is still a few inches above the top end of healthy so want to reach this target. I’m really just focused on health stats now as blood pressure and cholesterol problems run in the family - although both are fine now.

Can anyone share their experience of the last stubborn bits?

SLOOOOOOOW!!!!

I got to 4lbs away from my goal and it juts pretty much stopped. Up a bit. Down a bit. Up a bit. Etc!

Combined with being hungrier and having some food noise sneaking in, I decided to go up a dose and it’s knocked it on the head and I’m now a pound under goal. 🎉🎉

Beyond slow. Although to be fair, I’m eating maintenance calories for sure!

I’ve been at 9 and a half stone now for 6 months. Maintaining this with 5mg and eating about 1600-1700 calories a day on average. BMI of just under 23.

id like to lose about 4 more lbs. But clearly
not enough to dig deep and do it!

It is soooo slow. Maybe I should go up too. I’m only at 2.5 but it’s worked fine so far. I’m still sticking to the same food (just) but I suppose now I’m smaller it’s a maintenance amount. Hmph.

Also 4 pounds would be see me at goal. Must be a magic amount (although I’d like that to be top limit and ideally a pound or two lower)
