...but not much in weight. I NEED to get some more weight off because I must get back to doing pointe work.

What happens when you lose size but not weight????

I don't want to be an emaciated wreck, and looking thinner is great, but how do I deal with the extra weight on my toes?

    I am sure you have heard this many times before, but a piece of muscle the size of a deck of cards will weigh more than a peice of fat the size of a deck of cards. More than likely, what is happening to you is that you are losing some fat and gaining some muscle. Overall, this process will result in a smaller you, but not in a lighter you. Once you have a good muscle base down, though, the pounds will start to come off.

    Hope this helps!
