    How much weight should I lose for the summer?

    edited November 2024 in Goal: Maintaining Weight
    I'm between 110-120 lbs. I want to be able to like wear swimwear this summer I always wear a two piece never a one piece. Should I gain or lose weight to get a bikini body or maintain? I was thinking if I gain it would be through muscle right? And if I lose weight it would be through cardio? I guess. I don't know that much about it. Not all that active. Well what do you think how much weight should I lose or gain? And how do I do it?

    My measurements are like 40-25-35 or something like that. I want a better butt than I've had in the past honestly which has made me want to gain through muscle rather than losing. Advice?

      Maintain or gain muscle in legs/butt, if you want to make a change...

      Wouldn't worry about it though, you look great already. If you aren't active, get active for your health.

      You look great. I'm 120 and covered in cellulite on my butt, stomach and arms. Be thankful you look so great! :)

      Exercise and don't think about your weight at all - it's a nonissue for you. Activity will be the fitness key for a 110 lb woman. And fitness will translate to a great bikini body for you.

      You are at a perfect weight as it is right now. Just focus on maintaining the weight and just keep doing what you're doing.

      Pretty sure this is some trollbait. User with 1 post and a pretty conspicuous username.

      If not though, you may have a body-image disorder.

      I used to be 10-15 lbs lighter. So this is a bit higher for my range I'm short so 120 is almost a 23 bmi it's in the higher range of what's basically healthy.

      I don't think you should lose weight as much as focus on doing some recomp.

      For a better butt - squats, hamstring curls, lever calf machine

      I was thinking the same thing, esp since the skin tone appears to be very different even taking into account one photo is B&W and the hair as well.

      My skin looks white doesn't it? in the top photo? That's my inner arm. I have a lawsuit on a specific company having to do with this. My contentious is my inner arms are a skin type 3 and blanch therefore I was qualified others say I am not but not due to any evidence other than my exposed skin is said to be too dark. They allowed Hispanics but the Hispanics did not have as dark of a hue on their outer skin.
