People often think this is something they're doing wrong, that they're making mistakes that keep the weight on. There are some surprising reasons you might not be losing weight that you didn't think were possible. And with all the myths out there about food and exercise, it's hard to know what to try next.

We asked women who have done the impossible — lost the last 10 pounds and kept it off — how they really did it. While reading these tips, keep in mind that there's no one fix that works for everyone.

However, if you want to hear from the perspectives of real women about how they kept the weight off, this advice is for you.
