    Literally at the same spot as you. I'm 5'4", started at about 123 and got down to 119 lbs. 119 is usually what I tend to maintain. I have managed to get down to 114 in about a month's work, going to the gym about 4 times a week, running a mile, elliptical, some strength training, and trying my very best to eat healthy, at about 1200 a day. Not sure if that's high enough, but as for what my body tells me, it feels to be about right. I try to eat 3 meals a day with snacks in between. And hey, I've gotten down to 114 so, I suppose something is working! (As a side note, I have a small frame, and tend to carry my weight in my hips and stomach; so what I'm aiming for is not unhealthy).

    5'4, 116 pounds. Started at 141, goal is 110-108. These are the hard pounds!!! I got down to 111 but then I got cocky and started eating too much and not working out.

    pretty much the same thing happened to me! mon-wed 1200 cals a day and an hour of cardio plus some weights each day and gone up 1.6lbs too, has to be water retention or something i think ay,do you know what im gonna do, keep doing what im doing, be very exact with my calories (counting every little bit or chip i steal off my bfs plate haha) AND PUT THE SCALES AWAY! going to weigh once a week from now on.
