I think you look better than 85-90% of people I see running around in bikinis (myself included). Your tummy looks fabulous!

Also the suit is cute!

Well, thanks for helping out! And thanks for the compliments! I don't feel great, but I think incorporating weights into my workouts has definitely helped.

It's hard to critique as I don't know what YOUR exact aim/goal is.

You certainly appear to be at a healthy body-fat percentage for women in terms of health (ie: normal hormone production, reducing risk of CVD, diabetes, etc.) and there's no doubt you're doing very well for a mother of two who's had C-sections - and you should be proud of yourself!

If you have goals to lean out more - keep up with the strength training (as this helps preserve lean muscle mass while you diet), especially compound exercises (squats, deadlifts, bentover rows, bench and overhead press) and have a slight caloric deficit that keeps you above your BMR but below your TDEE and you should be good.

Jealous of your tummy.. more or less how there seems to be no sagging skin there for a Mom who had a c-section. Congrats to you...

I did have a goal to get to 115...don't know if I can really get there without starving myself. So, I am wanting to get to 120-125 and just be lean. I do have some stretchy skin, but it is right where my scar is. I guess my skin has a lot of elastic in it.

Lori, when you're viewing your own images in photobucket, on the right hand side you'll see "Image Links" ... simply 'click' on the one that says "IMG code" (not HTML code) to copy it to your clipboard, then paste it into your post here AND then edit the from upper to lower case.
