I'm 5'2", age 39, and have a small frame. My goal is 115-120, but I suspect 120 will be my final resting spot. The lowest I've been in adulthood was 110 in college. By late 20's, even after my first baby, I was around 120.

I've done the same thing, myself, and like someone else said, don't let today affect tomorrow. One thing that keeps me in line is I weigh myself everyday. If I do that, it reminds me to stay in line.

Good luck! You are on the right track and have a great attitude! When I was nursing (I have 4 children, ages 9-2), I was so hungry, there was no way I could try to lose or cut back.
