Hey.

I've often wondered the same thing. I weigh about 128 (have not lost a pound either since hiring a trainer a month ago!!!). I'm a size 2 or 4, and everyone I know who wears my size is under 120. I am slightly chesty but not huge -- 32D or 34C, depending on the brand. I am pretty muscular but not insanely so. I develop muscles very quickly when I work at them, and I don't tend to put on fat unless I'm really not taking care of myself. My mom also usually weighs about 10 pounds more than she looks like she does. I try to tell myself that it's more about how I look and feel, and not about the number. Which leads me to my second point. You said in your other post that you wonder what size you'll wear when you're at your ideal weight. Shouldn't it be the other way around -- I wonder what I'll weigh when I reach my ideal size? Just a thought -- focusing on size and inches seems to make more sense than the number on the scale, IMO, unless one is dangerously overweight and really needs to watch the pounds (and you're not).
Just my thoughts.
