[quote=Anonymous]I'm 5'5" and range 120-125, usually closer to 125 side. I started at 135 a few months ago.  I think this is the perfect weight for me.  135 was zero work, as in at whatever I wanted and didn't do formal exercise for years while having children.  I didn't look bad or fat, but I wanted to be more lean looking and stronger with more stamina.  At 125 I feel lean (and have been working out regularly for about a yr) and slim.  But when I creep closer to 120 I start looking too thin in my face and upper half.  Losing 10 lbs I did sacrifice a cup size in my breasts. It is also effort to maintain but not a ton. I cut out most sweets, flavored lattes, red meat and am careful with portions.  I still have a little dark chocolate daily and am more liberal on weekends.  I don't count calories at all.

I guess it depends how your body is shaped and where your weight is distributed.  I think a goal of 125 is perfect and you can see from there if that feels good and if it is maintainable without being obsessive about your food.  [/quote]
