    I'm short too! I barely graze 5'0" but I always tell everyone I'm 5'0" (shhh!). Im just getting back to it. My goal was to lose ten pounds for my birthday last year and I managed to get down seven pounds and was just three pounds shy of my goal of 125. But unfortunately with the new year and lifestyle change Ive been eating way too much fast and junk foods and ended up gaining 15 extra pounds. Currently I'm back at 135 pounds, my start weight last year and now I'm focusing on just exercising and eating proper healthy nutritious meals three times a day.
    Feel free to add me as well! :)

    Hi. I am a short woman, and would be happy to open my diary, but I am curious about whether or not the exercise notes and food notes show when you open your diary. Those I would rather keep private, though I would be happy to share what I'm actually eating and drinking throughout the day.

    I am barely 4'11" tall, so I actually have to stay under 1000 cal a day to lose. This has been a lifelong battle at this stage.

    I am wishing you good progress, and would be happy for another short buddy in this journey! And not just in losing, but then in maintaining.

    I'm 5 foot 2 and a HALF. That detail is IMPORTANT!

    Anyone may add me if you wish, but you might prefer not to, as I eat a lot more than most women do on any typical Short People Unite thread.

    Exercise and food notes show if your diary is open.

    On the internet browser*, click on the name to the left of the post. This will bring up a pop-up box. Click again on the poster's name or picture inside the box, and that will take you to the user's profile, where you will see the option Add As Friend.

    *If you are using the Android default web browser on a Samsung smartphone, this doesn't work, as the user's profile never loads. My workaround is to use the Google Chrome browser instead.

    @HeliumIsNoble that extra HALF is important. I always 'round up' from 5'2.5" to 5'3" because it makes my BMI sooo much more reasonable :D

    Include me because this is my kind of group!
