That's pretty impressive then, if you're building up that much on just 5 lbs! (I'd KILL for that! lol) Must be genetic, as Tamara said. Personally I think muscular arms on women is really sexy, but again that's just personal opinion.

I'll repeat, but make sure you're doing cardio. Your arms are going to look bigger and more, ahem, 'man-like' if they have some cushioning on them; just the muscle gives a 'leaner' look.

If you're really concerned about it (again, I think strong=sexy but if you don't) then you could stop training your arms, at least for a while, and focus on your back, chest and lower body. Working your upper body without specific moves for your arms is going to be working your arms secondarily (i.e. bench presses use your triceps), but since you're not focussing directly on them that should be ok.
