SugarRomeoTango, if you scroll through the comments, I explained the timeline of my journey

I'm not sure where the last 8lbs are your 5'6!!!!! but if thats where you want to be at goal I wish you the very best but just remember if your body says enough is enough be happy you look amazing!
Thanks momof3preemies! I originally had my goal for the top of a healthy BMI, but when I got there, I realized that I actually had a smaller frame than I ever realized under all the fat. I have a lot of fat sticking to my upper thighs, and many of our maintaining members have said that the last 10 pounds is where they saw trouble areas firm up. And 135 is solidly in the middle of a healthy BMI for my weight. (The exact middle is 133, actually). My maintenance plan will be to maintain between 133-138, so that's why my goal is 135. Good luck to you with the babies--looks like you've got your hands full! I have twins and a singleton, and they were all early and small. It's a lot of work, but I'm so thankful that they all turned out healthy and strong!

I know, right?? and she looks like she's always been trim and small!

I'm inspired by your pushing on to 135..I also want my 'problem areas' to shrink! but I think your paper towel is almost completely unrolled
