Hi, Maybe your body is "happy" at 120 (personally, I think that's a perfect weight at your height. I have a goal of 130 and I'm 5'1". You look fantastic, so you may want to continue whatever it is your doing and embrace your new weight. Congrats!!

Run for 35 minutes on the treadmill without "walking" in between :o)

Libby, I wish I can give you some encouragment/advice, but unfortunately I'm in THE EXACT SAME PLACE! The way I've been eating for the past two month have been a complete turnaround (not perfect) AND I've added exercise - and I've only lost 5lbs :o( I'm feeling very down and discouraged...

Thanks for the input, everyone!
