Any old timers with advice to get the last 20 pounds off. the scale keeps fluctuating from 170 to 172 but never below 170!! So frustrating!!

Have you tried running? That will melt it away.

I would change up your exercise. When I start running again I always drop a lot if weight. (I just don't like to run so I don't do it often :-) ) your body is used to your routine. Add some calories, monitor your carbs. And Water. 8 glasses is just the recommendation. My trainer told me to strive for 1/2 my body weight in water.

That's alot of Water. That would be 119 pounds of water for me.

Actually it's 1/2 your body weight but you don't drink 119lbs if water, you drink 119ozs of water.

I know. I was teasing fluffylibra. We're buddies.

Could you imagine? 119 lbs of Water is 15 gallons. LOL!

Yep, the last 20 are a killer for me. Granted, I have been off the wagon for the last few days. I seem to be able to maintain well. I just cannot break 145.

Water really does the trick for me. I didn't lose anything from May until September, but I started upping my water in September, and I am losing again. I have 12-17 more pounds to lose. It seems to me I lose the most when I am drinking my water regardless of my exercise routine.
