Last 10 pounds

[smithpy 117]

I'm having a hard time losing my last 10 pounds. Any suggestion?

I heard there is a "diet" where you eat 1000 calories (or whatever your normal calorie intake is) for 5 days, then cut that in half for two days. It kind of jump starts your metabolism. So 5 days of 1000 and 2 days of 500.

Water. Water. Water. Then some more water. And Protein. Make sure you are staying low calorie, lower your carbs and throw in some cardio. I am working on my last 10 as well. It feels good to be that woman who I always wanted to punch in the face for saying, "if only I could lose this last 10 pounds" lol. Good luck. My doc and trainer told me 64 oz of water is just a starting point. Half your body weight (in oz ofcourse) is where you are aiming. Good luck.

Just spoke with dietician. She agreed - increase Protein and Water intakes and cut down on carbs. She also said that I may be at goal because some of the weight is skin not fat.
