5' - 5'2" success stories?

Cladf

Hey everyone,
As a short woman, I would be so motivated and grateful to hear about any success stories from people of a similar height to me...with over 78lbs to go it's hard to visualise how I'll feel/look at my target weight...being so short I don't hold me weight well at all!
Thanks in advance

At 5'2" I'm right there with you! 60lbs to go, I'm currently in a 16. Keep up the good work!

I'm 5'1" and really starting to kick this weight loss in gear! I have about 70 lbs to lose and can't wait to be a success story!

Hi! I'm 5'1" and I've lost 40 lbs over the last 3 years, 60 lbs since 2008. I'm currently 127 lbs and would like to be in the 120-125 lb range. Honestly I had no idea how I would look at this weight, since I had never been this weight as an adult! All of a sudden I'm a size small in everything, pants range from 2 to 6 depending on the brand, when I never thought I'd be smaller than medium or size 8. I thought I'd be skin and bones if I ever dropped below 140 lbs. Not so! And I feel wonderful, even my balance is better. I'm much more active, doing things I always wanted to do more of (hiking, kayaking) or never thought I could do (running). I ran a half marathon this past Saturday. Not bad for the girl who was always picked last in gym. Good luck!

Hi there, I'm just getting started again so no pics yet. I'm 5'1" and currently 152. I'm trying to get to at least 125. I was at that weight about 2 yes ago than baby #3 came along and I've never lost all the weight after that. But I'm determined now! Add me if you'd like. And good luck with your weight loss!!

Hey everyone! So I am 5'1" and 36 years old. My starting weight back in July 2014 was 172, this was me at my largest. Almost a year later... yes an entire year I'm at 136. My goal is 125 range. I posted two photos (hope they work/show up). You can clearly see a difference in my face. I have worked very hard and don't ever want to go back to that. That moment when you have to buy smaller clothes is AMAZING!! Can't even tell you the last time I wore a size 6. Anyways love reading everyone's posts.

Hello, I'm 5'2". Cannot, for some reason, get pictures to post but you could view the ones in my profile. They are all of me at my current weight, about 107.

I've maintained my current weight for going on 5 years. At my heaviest I was around 140-145. The last time I had to lose weight was post-pregnancy in 2011. That's when I found MFP, started logging food and exercise everyday, and the rest is history. I still use MFP in maintenance as I did while I was losing.

Good luck, ladies!

I'm 5'2". Not sure that I'm a success story yet but I've lost 37 pounds so far. I'm exactly halfway to my goal! 74 pounds sounded really huge and scary when I first started but now that I only have 37 pounds left to go it feels more manageable.

I am 5ft 2 and have lost 103 lbs, I went from a size 24 and am now a 10-12, I never imagined I would get to this and gave myself small goals along the way, clothes was more an inspiration than the scales, i would buy a new size smaller jeans and top, normally from a charity shop, in case I never fitted into them, I threw my sclaes
away
them away and weighed in once a weeks at the chemist. I introduced exercise by walking and getting a Fitbit, now I enjoy workouts. I realise now it's a life journey and not just to reach a goal weight. I still have a bit to lose, and tone up, but my kids now have a more active and happier mum x I hope I can help someone get to goal x

I'm 5'1 and currently at 132. After having my 3rd baby in January 2015 i had a lot of weight to lose. On the day I went into labor I was 180. I'm a runner so being active is part of my life but finding the time isn't always easy. Pre baby I was usually between 105-110. I am looking to get close to that again. I am loving this app and can't believe how helpful it is. I don't have any pics of me currently but here is what I looked like around 110.

I've lost 16lb since February. I'm 5'1". Currently 10stone (140lb). I'm not where I want to be yet but these pictures show the difference it's made to my body shape and face already. I look like a dumpy barrel in the one on the left!!

sarahgemini

I'm 4ft 11 inches and now 144lb having lost 22 lb since January 13th 2015. Lightest I've been for along time, so much easier reading your success stories to keep motivated. Thankyou and well done.

kar328

I'm 5'2", currently down 91.4 lbs. My goal is to be "normal weight" which would be 136 lbs. I'd like to go lower, to see if I can get to 124 lbs so I'd have both a buffer and bragging rights that I lost half my body weight. Not sure if I can go that low, but we'll see what happens. Don't miss the 39% of me that left my body

missh1967

5'1", 62 pounds lost. From size 16 (probably pushing 18 at times) and 2XL to mediums and 8-10 petite.

TAMMY7173

I am 5 foot and started weighing in at 215. I currently weigh 164. I went from a 20 to a 14. I went from 18/20 in shirts to a medium! I need to get to 153 just to be overweight catagory. I think 128 would be normal weight. I just want to reach the 153 for now. It is slowing down a lot right now. I have only lost 1 pound in three weeks. I will never go back to what I was. I have taken a lot of before and inbetween pics. I'm waiting to get to 128 to post them all.
