Healthy weight for my size?

I'm 5'3 and was sure I would be happy with 125 lbs, but I still have quite a bit of fatty pudge in those typical lady areas: lower stomach, lower back, upper back. Anyone else my height with this problem? I think if I went down to 115, that's my sweet spot.

    It's hard to tell your ideal weight would be. So many variables to consider. Body type, BF%, personal preference...

    There is no one ideal weight for everyone of the same height.

    What she said ^^^

    Try getting your body fat % and see if that's something you need to lower, instead of weighing less on a body scale.

    My BFI is 21%.
