How much weight should I lose for the summer?

I'm between 110-120 lbs. I want to be able to like wear swimwear this summer I always wear a two piece never a one piece. Should I gain or lose weight to get a bikini body or maintain? I was thinking if I gain it would be through muscle right? And if I lose weight it would be through cardio? I guess. I don't know that much about it. Not all that active. Well what do you think how much weight should I lose or gain? And how do I do it?

My measurements are like 40-25-35 or something like that. I want a better butt than I've had in the past honestly which has made me want to gain through muscle rather than losing. Advice?

    Maintain or gain muscle in legs/butt, if you want to make a change...

    Wouldn't worry about it though, you look great already. If you aren't active, get active for your health.

    Exercise and don't think about your weight at all - it's a nonissue for you. Activity will be the fitness key for a 110 lb woman. And fitness will translate to a great bikini body for you.

    You are at a perfect weight as it is right now. Just focus on maintaining the weight and just keep doing what you're doing.

    Pretty sure this is some trollbait. User with 1 post and a pretty conspicuous username.

    If not though, you may have a body-image disorder.

    I used to be 10-15 lbs lighter. So this is a bit higher for my range I'm short so 120 is almost a 23 bmi it's in the higher range of what's basically healthy.

    I don't think you should lose weight as much as focus on doing some recomp.

    For a better butt - squats, hamstring curls, lever calf machine

    I was thinking the same thing, esp since the skin tone appears to be very different even taking into account one photo is B&W and the hair as well.

    My skin looks white doesn't it? in the top photo? That's my inner arm. I have a lawsuit on a specific company having to do with this. My contentious is my inner arms are a skin type 3 and blanch therefore I was qualified others say I am not but not due to any evidence other than my exposed skin is said to be too dark. They allowed Hispanics but the Hispanics did not have as dark of a hue on their outer skin.
