Even 105 pounds at 5'3 is still underweight. Your goal weight is slightly overweight, but it isa more realistic and healthy weight for you than 95-105.

I have to object to this assumption. This is not necessarily an "unhealthy" weight for that height. I have a weightlifting friend, a woman in her 50's, who is 5'2", and fluctuates between 100-103#. She is certainly not unhealthy or underweight, and is actually looking to drop another few pounds of fat. IMO, a 5'3" woman could hit this range just fine.
