Last 5 Pounds

I had trouble this year post holidays.  I usually put on some weight at Christmas and then take it off by March.  I just couldn't shake it this year and even continued to gain.  As such by late April this year, I was at about 184 (Yikes!) and I finally resolved to get on a plan.  Since then, I've been trying to lose about 1 lb/week.  I am now in the stretch and must shake the last 5 pounds.

I've been here lots of times.  It seems that my weight just pops back up whenever I get down there.  On the other hand, my weight always tends to float up whenever I'm not actively trying to lose weight.  I wanted to get down to 173 by end of June and was more of less thinking I'd go the slow route, but I'm wondering if I shouldn't just juice it off and then work to hold it.  Playing with numbers I guess.

This weight game I play is silly, I think, but I can't find any other way to keep it under control.
