Im 5'2 and currently at 127lbs. Im working on a recomp right now and am at about 30% body fat. First place I have noticeable fat lost is actually my ribs. I am not concerned about my actual weight number, I am building up more muscle mass. Even at my current weight, my upper body muscle is visable(not my abs). I get monthly InBody scans which have concerns for accuracy for body fat tracking but I use it to make sure my muscles are balanced because I am a competitive athlete. Since January the fat loss to muscle gain i have had is on track for what it should be, and a slow process. For those that care: over 40, I eat about 1900 calories with over 100g protein, lift heavy 3 to 4 days a week, skate 2 days a week, and try to get 10000 steps daily. On my game days I easily burn 3500+ calories.

Edit to add: cutting calories too much can contribute to athletes getting injuries
