    Hello I would love to join! I'm 5'2.5" and it is crazy when I gain weight you can see it right away compared to taller people. My legs look huge and I have belly that shakes. I am at my worst and I want to fix it!

    I'm just a hair under 5'2". Personally I love being short EXCEPT for how little I can eat and not gain weight. I'm learning to be really comfortable though on 1200-1400 calories and have dropped from around 150 to 126 since the end of March. I've got around 5-10 lbs to go (I think) and love having friends on MFP who post and comment on each others' statuses.

    There is a flip side, losing 4 lbs goes a long way

    That's true. Especially once you're in a "healthy" weight range.

    5-6 and yeah, that extra 40-50 I have been carrying around does look exaggerated on my frame. Work in progress.

    5'1.5" and 56. I hate the small calorie allotment even to maintain.

    5'1" Shrunk 1/2" this year. Too bad it wasn't in the other direction.

    I'm five feet tall. I had a Chinese friend in university who thought this was hilarious since we both disproved our country's height stereotype, since he was over six feet tall. Apparently he was expecting tall American women (we were both in Canada at the time). I feel huge sometimes, just not in the right direction. Currently 132 lbs and aiming for somewhere between 110 lbs and 115 lbs.
