so not too long ago i was 145 lbs Diet is your most important factor here, even with a ton of exercise it can be difficult to get rid of those last few pounds. Make sure it's low calorie, low fat, low sugar. Make sure you drink water (no soda or diet soda), no carbs after 7:00, and try to raise your protein intake just a bit (for girls). The more muscle you have, the faster you burn fat. Now you don't want too much muscle of course but I'm sure you would like the toned look and it will help you drop weight faster. As for the exercise, just make sure you're burning more calories than you are taking in. Do some cardio at home on days you don't go to the gym. |

I agree with all of this but no carbs after 3 is an even better idea and eat small meals often. Additionally, with all due respect, you don't look like you need to lose any weight at all. At 5'7'' 130 is actually on the slender side, don't push yourself so hard for a number, do what's right for YOUR body. |

you sound like you are in good shape and a great size.....nobody likes a beanpole
but hey, do what you feel is necessary....i am just saying that i don't believe that you need to lose any more weight if you want to lose the extra pounds then i would suggest doing small workouts and exercises at work or around the house when you aren't doing anything....you can work on your abs or butt while driving....just remember that the more active your body is, the more energy it needs to stay active and like they said.....eat right |

Ok, just checked out your pics...you don't really need to lose any weight BUT:
Your ideal weight for your height is 130 lbs (according to society). It would be medically unadvisable to go below 121 lbs or over 160. And to agree with Nova, I don't like girls who are too skinny either. They don't look good, they look like they are sick or have an eating disorder. When you are too thin you tend to lose those sexy curves that women have. |

you look nicely proportioned to me. the issue is that thighs, calves and gluts are the larges muscles in the body and for a good reason. they do a tremendous amount of work. if you watch your calories you will get down to near nothing in body fat and then you will start to lose muscle. but you know since you already look very nice perhaps you should just not be so hard on yourself!
 really, you look great. |
