Hi Skinnygirl
Your BMI is 17.9 - so I really think that it is not a good idea to try to lose weight. You really are at the bottom end of a healthy weight and it can be just as dangerous to have too low a weight as it is to have a very high weight. I would hate for you to develop health problems.
I suspect that really want to look more toned. I think that you want to eat healthily - but not with a calorie deficit... You really want to adopt some form of strength exercise to build your muscles... If you are a member of a gym - I suggest that you talk to the personal trainers.
I am certainly not an expert on exercise - and weight control will always be a prime issue for me... It was when I was at goal weight and I have crept up from there...
I suspect that you will benefit most from going to our parent site www.fitness.com. I know that you can search for waist exercises there... There are forums on things like fitness, sports and bodybuilding and I suspect that you are more likely to find people there that can set you on the right path.
We are a supportive community over here in "weight loss" and will certainly cheer you on regarding things like eating healthily and getting the exercise done. You may however prefer to hang out with the people on those other forums.
Either way - I certainly wish you good luck with your project.

Since you already are very lean, your body makes it very hard for you to lose more weight. I don't want to sound overbearing, and please forgive me if I do, but I wouldn't try to lose more weight if I were you. You already look great.
All the best to you.
