Remember a few things:

!. there is a great thread on here somewhere about how it can take 6 months afte ryou reach goal for the weight to redistribute. Until then you could have skinny areas and chunky areas

2. Loose saggy skin can look like fat in some places and losing more weight won't help it go away. Time, good hydration, exercise and massage can help.

3. It may take toning more then additional weight loss. Hitting a gym and incorperating weights in can make for a more sleek tight look at the same weight.

Rememebr too that slow is good. Atkins says the slower you lose those last 10 pounds the more likely you are to keep them off. It also means less saggy skin and stretch marks. Just have patience and work on a way you can eat for life. The last few pounds will come off in time.
