This already happened. I was weighing 259 in Novemeber, and it took until now to finish off those next 10 pounds. I kept riding during the winter so I wouldn't rebound, and it worked. I maintained that weight until the spring when I could increase my miles, and the heat helps too. I will need to examine my diet a little more closley now to make the next goal. It has to be a lifestyle that I can maintain and enjoy.
