    Don't worry about the scale. Look in the mirror and see if your body looks fit. If it looks good then you're fine. If not, then lose a few more inches (a lot of people have problem in their stomach area).

    My cousin has always been heavier than she looks. When she was a baby she looked like a normal baby but you'd pick her up and it was like she was made of bricks!

    I think some people are just built differently. I would worry more about inches than pounds.

    I was also thinking in between 125-130. You probably just have a lot of LBM as your legs look quite shapely (a good amount of muscle). Scale is not so important. You look great.

    I would have guessed about 125-130. What matters more...what the scale says or the mirror shows?

    Floridagirl -- you need to meet Staci. Look at how different she looks at 117, 131 and 142. Undoubtedly, it's the heaviest weight where she looks the hottest.
