Loosing my butt

I am 5'7" and a few years ago I was the heaviest I had ever been at 178lbs. I got on a diet and exercised regularly. In about 4 months, I was able to get to 155 lbs but I found myself with a saggy butt and chest.
I have gained my weight back and as of last week, I weighed 180 lbs. According to all of the charts and data, I should be within the 110 lb to 150lb mark. But, I can clearly see that for my frame, even 150 is too thin for me. I loose the parts of my body I like and give me definition. I have lost 3 pounds with this site and see myself quickly getting to my goal of 155lbs. What can I do to loose weight but not my figure? (if that even makes any sense).

    You have to look at body recomposition which requires resistance training... squats, deadlifts, leg press executed the CORRECT way.

    Start incorporating resistance exercise 3x a week into your routine. Free weights, machines, resistance bands. If it can lift my old butt it can lift anyone's. :wink:

    I know, really frustrating but it is resolvable. I used to have a huge butt and loved it but after loosing weight ( and I have been exercising literally every day, doing all kind of butt exercises during my weigh loss) it literally vanished. Then I gained a few pounds back,even though it was frightening but I wanted at least some of it back and started doin more butt exercises and after a while I got a better shaped and round butt. Balanced diet and workouts surely cn help, but you have to have a bit more calories then your body needs, in order for muscles to form.
