I feel your pain! -.2 in 5 weeks for me. HANG IN THERE!!!  

I have a very good friend that is 5'4". She is VERY trim at her usual 112#. At 5'7" and 127# with muscle from running perhaps your goal is too aggressive? You must be very trim. I'm wondering if you're actually trying to lose running muscle. Most of us realize you cannot "target"weight loss - looking at yourself where do the last pounds come from? Just trying to add some "food" for thought. Tony

Hey at least it was a loss. I just LOOKED at a cheesecake and gained 2 lbs plus I found the 0.2 lbs you lost if you'd like me to return it.  

Thank you RR and Draglist. Tony/StoicGrace: thanks for making these points. My current weight is probably actually around 125, as I do weigh myself during the week, but just had sodium over the weekend. My body weight is carried fairly evenly, though my thighs are a little bulky from not watching form or gears on my bike when commuting - an old steel frame with usually full panniers. My reason to be at the absolute low end of healthy range is that 1) I like running and don't really have the feet for it and 2) my family health history is bad - what I know of it - and I want to set myself up now for a permanently healthy life through the rest of my 30s and beyond. That said, yes, it is an aggressive goal and I think my body might be hesitant to let go of weight.  

IC: I love you and that is all. I am going to continue to pester you until you let me shoot a reality show, starring *YOU* and your comic genius. The Gumball Diaries. That's what it will be titled. I'm ready. It's on. Just let me know when I should board a plane. 

Lmao! Oh lord don't tell my girlfriend.  

I didn't mean it in a spicy kind of way. I meant I love your humor. I'm not trying to blow in to town and steal her lady. I'm straight. I just recognize comic genius when I see it. 

I knew that I'm just yanking your chain ;) I've never been called a comic genius before. Weird, nerd, spaz, yes, comic genius, no. This could go to my head.  

Wait that might be a bad thing. My head is already an inch bigger than average and finding hats is a nightmare.
