Anyone's losses NOT slow down as they got to goal?

Have any of you continued to lose at a steady rate even when you got close to or at goal or does it always slow down? I ask because I'm not sure what my true goal weight should be (I was 155 at my wedding but that was really thin for me and caused by wedding stress). The lowest I've been ever since having 3 kids is 165 so that's what I was going by but I may be able to do 160. I am at 173.8 today and still losing following the same pattern I've had for the past 40 days (lose 2 lbs, lose a few oz the next day, stay the same the next day and lose 2 lbs again and on and on).

So I'm just wondering if the fact that I'm still losing fairly steadily means I'm not that close to my true goal.

Mine!! I consistently lost every single round the same amount. I thought it would be harder once I got down to 120, but I even saw 113 before stopping my 3rd P2. So no, my losses were not smaller as I got smaller!!

Count me in. I've got about 10 pounds to go (maybe) but I lost the same last round as I did the first.
