    Can I join? I'm 5ft 3.8 ? :P I have lost about 4 stone and have 1 more to lose to get me down to 7 stone 13. Im around 8 10- 9 stone now. My weakness is just ice cream tubs and pizza! I really want to lower my bodyfat and get some abs and muscles in hence me wanting to get down at the lower end of my weight. Would be nice to see it year and it is a goal I have! Feel free to add me little ones :) Need some motivation! and any spin class lovers also give me a add :D

    I'm 5'2 and trying to take off 40lbs. I've also done it before but want to really commit to a lifestyle change instead of diet this time....clean eating and exercise... A lovely glass of Cabernet and one piece of dark chocolate is my treat when I've eaten good and clean and exercised that day....is that wrong? Would love input....

    I have been saving calories for the evening for some chocolate and a glass of milk. I'm having a glass or two of wine this evening....not had any wine for a week hehe. I'll add you as a friend so we can encourage each other when the wine and chocolate cravings start

    Thanks Shelly, I am going to need it because I'm going to try and trick myself into thinking my sleepy time tea is a treat at least a few nights a week instead of my glass of wine....I wonder if I will fall for that...lol...thanks for adding me as a friend. Here's to a great start to 2016...Cheers!

    Hi everyone! I'm 5"3' and currently 144 pounds. I was 185 pounds and was able to get down to 128. Unfortunately, I got lazy and put a good amount of weight back on. I'm trying to lose about 20 pounds. Being petite is a little frustrating. Even 5 pounds makes a big difference on my frame.

    Please add me. Looking for new friends! :)

    Will be 41 years old next month and 5 feet tall. My calorie goal is way less than others. But I'm able to handle it most days if I set my mind to it. =)

    Hi....looking for support from ladies similar height to me. I weighed in at 147lbs (10sr 7) ideally want to loose 20lb to take me to 9st. I have lost the weight before but over a 2 yr period it has crept back on.
    Never been on the forums before but would like support from others in a similar situation.
    I find evening cravings the worst. And want wine and chocolate haha


    Hi I am 5 1 ..148 .. Please add me .I don't have an option to add you.

    So I'm not really overweight, just undertall lol. I'm 5'3 and understand the evening cravings pain. I used to love to bake but I can't hardly do it anymore. Having things in the house has proved too big a temptation. Feel free to add me.

    I've found it harder as I become older!
    I'm 41 and a mum to 3. Age 7 the youngest.
    I am following the fab diet by rosemary conley, which worked for me 2 yes ago but regrettably I've gone back to my old eating habits and gained approx a 1.5 stone. Which on a 5ft 2 frame is alot and the majority of my clothes don't fit.
    I'm going on my hols in August and would love to feel confident in a bikini.
    Since Sunday I've lost 2lb...so must be doing something right. Even though my profile says I've gained 2lb (weird) I feel really motivated at the moment... But don't know how long it will last.

    So you are going back to a diet that is not sustainable? Why not eat what you like and stay in a calorie deficit?

    Considering the average height of a woman (in the uk anyway) is only 5ft 4, most of you are hardly that small! I am only 4ft 11 and there are shorter people too! I started at 129 pounds and I'm now 96.7 pounds and haven't really found it that difficult... if you're shorter there is less of you to feed, it's just how it is.

    Guys, petit women are awesome! My grandmother was 4'8' and full of piss and vinegar. My wife is the same, but 4'7". Don't ever think that height means anything. Well, OK, you might not be able to play in the NBA, but few can. You gotta love yourself for who you are.
