Shorties like me under 5'5 positive vibes only!

Hi I'm 5,5 I'm not really a scale person I kind of go by how I feel and body pictures (before n after) they really help especially as I'm weight training which can add to your scale weight which can be demotivating
I also like to see people of a similar size to try and incision what I could achieve ... meal prepping for a few days also helps with the ingredients replacements I would just change up things like the oil I use Try frylight use less butter with cheeses use things like the triangles they are much less calories intake use passata rather than bought sauces fresh herbs and spices to pack in the flavour once you get it and like it u won't loose it
What helped me is I understood the slimming world rules and just now loosley use what I learnt that may be a good start point very good book
Good luck

Fellow Shorties - do you have a specific goal weight or weight range? I would be happy at 128 (now 135), but thinking if I shoot for 123, that would give me a buffer zone. At 123, the heavens would also open up and you'd hear me screaming and singing Handel's Messiah from every corner of the globe!!!

I'm currently 147, started at 150. I'm 4'11 and my goal is 125 lbs right now although my healthy range for my height and frame is 94-115. I will be happy with 125.

I'm 5'2 and hoping to lose 30ish pounds, but at this point I'll settle for whatever I can lose. My biggest weakness is carbs because I love bread and pasta. I've been eating less pasta but still eat cereal a couple times a day (at least). I'm not officially vegetarian but I might as well be because the meat served in my school's cafeteria is super greasy (I'm in college). Cutting out meat for the most part has still not done me any favours though. I don't really have good access to a scale so I'm really aiming for the way I looked at the beginning of highschool when I was about 125. Still could've lost some weight then but it's better than now. I'm also pretty certain I have thyroid issues (undiagnosed though), which doesn't do me any favors. Anyway, long story short, I need people to keep me on track and convince me to go to the gym once in a while; even though I do go to swing dance lessons once a week it isn't enough. I'm pretty satisfied with my muscle mass (I did marching band in highschool) but I hate that you can't tell I have muscles by looking at me. Feel free to add me!

Hi all! I'm just at 5' (although my doc says I'm 4' 11" and 3/4 - I say 5'. I'm currently at about 188lbs and want to lose at least 50. I'd love to have more friends and motivation. Right now, I'm sticking to about 1200 calories per day and doing 5 days of cardio (recumbent bike at our apartment gym for 30-45 mins a day).

I'm 5'4. I have struggled with weight most of my adult life. My starting goal is 40 lbs. My long-term goal is to lose about 80 lbs. I'm always open to new friends.

Hi! I'm 5'2 and trying to loose 50 pounds! Would love to have friends as I'm starting over on this journey!

I'm 4'11" barely and almost 52 yrs old. It goes on much easier than it comes off the older you get I can attest to that. I am down to my last 5-7 lbs to lose (again) but those last 10 are always the hardest.

dramaqueen45

I'm 5'4" on a good day (short legs) and I started at 180 at the end of July 2014 and hit my goal of 125 in March of 2016. The last 5-10 are really tough but you can do it! I am currently trying to maintain in a range of 125-130. After the holidays last season I was up above 130 and got up to 134 and then was fluctuating between 133-132. Today I'm back to 130 so hoping I will be back under it in a week or so. Keep going! Consistency, self-forgiveness, moderation and just daily honest logging is really the key.

I'm 5'3½", which I don't consider all that short since 5'5" is average female height, but I fit your criteria!

I was about 125 in college. I got up to at 235 as my heaviest. Lost 85 lbs in 2011 (using MFP) but gained it all back in subsequent years due to bad choices. I got back up to 235 in 2014, lost a few, down to 212 last year.

So, starting weight, officially, is 212. That was 45 days ago, on November 27th, 2016. It was my 32nd birthday. I'm on a 100-day "challenge" to keep myself on track. I track my food and exercise daily but my weight once a week.

I'm down to 197.

I started a 4-day water-only fast this morning. I do short fasts intermittently, usually only one day, but I've done up to 5. I do them 2-3x/year.

My goal weight is 125-135 range.

Feel free to add me. Most people I've added have abandoned ship. New friends welcome!

roshnib1199

I'm 5,3inch...I know what you mean, seems being short makes it a harder job to lose the weight and keep it off. I'm doing it , one day at a time.

Great job on your loss so far! You are on your way! Keep it up!

molly3210

Hey shorties! Anyone wanna try for a weight loss goal before Labor Day? That about 7 weeks away. I'm at 185 right now, and am personally aiming for at least 10 lbs.

Anyone else have pre-summer goals?
