I agree with this poster. I am at about 135, same height as OP, and since I’ve started lifting more over the last year and a half I feel fantastic. I’m stronger than I’ve ever been. I’m above my pre pregnancy weight by about 15 pounds, but honestly even my husband tells me how good I look.

OP, I’m sure you look better than you think you do.

You are in the healthy weight range for your height! Let it go, buy some clothes that fit, learn to love your body, and find something else to occupy your energy and thoughts. What a waste of your life to spend so much effort on a non-problem!

OP you want to be 5 foot 4 and 117 pounds??! That’s nuts. That’s what a teenager weighs. I’m a little taller than you and about the same weight. I’m a size 4. What size do you want to be?! You have to work on your head not your weight.

Eat more in the morning and at lunch. Have dinner earlier in the day, get more sleep and add some physical activity, doesn’t have to be anything major and see if you notice any changes.
