I think Lisa's response was well-intended, and I agree w/the essence of her posts.
I'm 5'5" and right now, I'm about 120-125lbs. I have a very small frame, but I am muscular (in addition to riding, I row, hike, and lift weights).
To be honest, I feel comfortable anywhere from 120-140lbs. I don't weigh myself--go by which size clothes I'm wearing. Right now, I prefer being on the lower end of my range because I'm faster on the bike and can really power up hills. I love being strong and get a kick out of people making comments about my "guns." LOL. I'm 44 years old, for crying out loud, and I could do more push ups than most of my male coworkers.![]()
When I was running half- and full marathons, I weighed 105-110, and I looked like I was sick.
Weight is a personal thing. The bottom line is that most people don't care about your weight---they care about how you treat others. People will always find a flaw, if they are looking for one. Please yourself, not others, and be healthy!
