    I think this is something you should ask your doctor next time you go.

    At 5'5", 132 is your ideal weight, and if that's you in the pic, I think you look great! You have a lovely shape and certainly don't look at all overweight.

    But it's all about how YOU feel. Personally, I don't think you need to lose any more :)

    Personally, I think you look beautiful in that photo, but it's completely up to you what you'd like your goal weight to be. Perhaps get to that weight, and up your strength training so that you're firmed and toned - that can often make a large difference in how you look at a particular weight? :)

    I think you look great at 132, I definitely wouldn't be aiming for 110, maybe somewhere in-between that you are comfortable with. Any yeh maybe check with your doctor

    well if you're going just off BMI, at 5'5 and 110lbs you'd be classified as underweight.
    I don't really see the need to go below 120, as you're looking great at 132!

    i'm also 5'5 and my goal is 123 :)

    I'm currious as to how you came up with 110? I would talk to a doctor and do some research. Being lighter is not always healthier. My ideal weight, according to the internet is around 150. I remember a time that I was 103 and could not put on weight because of the amount of activity I did. I look back at the pictures and wonder why no one started questioning if something was wrong. (other than everyone new that I played basketball at every chance i got and ran when I didn't have the chance to play basketball). I could aim for 103 but honestly...I'd look like I was annorexic and it is not at all healthy for me. Check with a doctor and they will be able to tell you more about whether or not it would be healthy to be at the lower weight.

    You looked great at 132lb, why would you want to go lower than that?

    I suggest you use 132lb as a target weight, and see how you feel about the way you look when you get there. If you've been getting fit and working out, you may end up looking slimmer than that before you even get to 132lb. ;)

    You look healthy and great at the weight you are now. I think you would look unhealthy if you lost more weight imo.
