    i am in the same spot as you, i have about 4 lbs left to hit till my goal, i have hit it before but can't stay there... anyway, i am happy with every other part of my body but my tummy. i still have lower belly fat that sticks out and makes me look bloated all the time. I have gone back to jm rin30 2 days ago, as i find i am more toned when i do here dvd's. I was doing slim in 6 and lost all my definition i had with jm's dvd's. so back to her, i think it's bv/c she does more weigh exercises then just squats, lunges, etc

    Same position, same height and almost the same weight.
  • 141 and 5'5" still sounds a little high to me for a woman. That was around my starting weight when I decided to lose weight. I'm 5'4" though.

    You have to take body frame/type into consideration. 140 lbs for one person is not the same for another. My mom is 5'4" and I'm 5'5", but we are built completely differently. She has a very small frame and doesn't build muscle like I do, so I can weigh 15 lbs more than her and still wear a size smaller than she does.

    i'm sure it varies, but the fact that she still has belly fat tells me that maybe she's not at her ideal weight.

    i see where you are coming from with that... my question is what is one to do when their body likes being at a certain weight? I fight hard and can't ever get under and then my dr said she doesn't want me to go lower either b/c age factors in on how low you should go etc....

    LIFT WEIGHTS. SQUAT DEEEEEEPPP

    Excellent.

    The squat rack became like the altar, where life and death would pass in front of your eyes, and you looked forward to that every squat workout - The Golden Eagle
