Default Losing the last 20lbs!

Hi everyone,

I've been stalking this forum a little for the last couple of weeks and finally decided to join. Your stories are all so inspiring. I'm 24 (as of last week), single, and hoping to go back to school in the fall. When I was 21 I started losing weight and went from about 210 to 160 very slowly. I've tried losing weight since I was 15 before finding something that worked for me. I'm training for another half marathon (or hoping to, I was having some knee issues in the winter) and I go to CrossFit about 3 times a week. I've tried a few different eating plans in the last couple of years but I cannot get anymore weight off. My lowest weight was 156.6lbs and right now Im hovering around 160. These last 20lbs are driving me nuts and I'm hoping I can get some guidance for you guys on here to hit my goal once and for all.

Look forward to talking to all of you.

Welcome to 3FC!

Sounds like you've found a plan that works for you and you're truly living it! Excellent work!

There's a Featherweight section for people who either only have a little left to lose or are trying to get those last pounds off that might have advice for you. Not to mention all the other support areas!

Post anywhere you're comfortable and best of wishes!

Default Congrats!

Congrats on your weight loss! Your story sounds similar to mine. I've found a lot of success with weight watchers. I used to be 197 - I'm now 143.2 and can't wait to lose 10 more pounds! Stay focused and it will come off!
