Last 5 pounds?

Last 5 pounds?

I lost 45 pounds and it took me 1 1/2 years to do it. I have 5 more pounds to go (10 would be good too) and I just can't seem to get it off. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks! I do 1 hour 5 days a week on the exercise bike & I bought these band things that you lift, but I think my body is used to the diet & the exercise that I do, so I'm guessing I need to change it up a bit. I saw a nutritionist, and I eat pretty healthy but I still just can't budge on the scale.

you should change up your routine every few weeks, your body usually goes into plateau mode from doing the same.. it gets used to the same routine and in turn, you see no results.. how about fast paced walking on the treadmill.. or interval training? do you lift weights at all?

I have 5 pound weights, but I guess they're not really helping! Maybe I need to try heavier weights? Thanks for your input MarcellaBella!
