    I'm 5'1'' with a very athletic frame and just started a little above 200 less than two weeks ago. I've had a lot of success with weight loss in the past but over the years I let the weight come back on and now I'm in big trouble. I live in Florida and I'm 22. very new and looking for lots of friends to share motivation and support with, so feel free to add me :)

    Hey there ladies! I'm 5'2" and 168ish right now. I'm hoping to get to my GW of 125 by next summer, with counting calories and upping my gym time. I'm military, so I REALLY need to get back into shape so I can easily pass my PT tests. I've also started getting shin splints from running with all the weight on my little fat legs!

    Please feel free to add me, anybody. It really is great to see the sucess, and conquering of struggles, of fellow shorties, knowing that I'm not the only one going through it all!

    :drinker:

    i'm only short as well 5ft 1
    starting weight was 22 stone 8 now 2 weeks later i have lost 12lb and weigh 21 stone 10, i don't do any exercise at the moment i'm concentrating on counting calories and trying to get proper portion sizes into my brain. Have been to the doctors for a referral to the gym and then will start doing some exercise.
    I weigh every meal and log every single thing i put in my mouth even those throat sweets that i hate the taste of.
    My motivation to lose weight is my 25th wedding anniversary next October when my husband and i are going to Cancun and renewing our wedding vows, I never wore a proper wedding dress so i'm aiming on losing about 4 stone by the and hopefully go down from a size 26-28 to a 22 would love to be an 18 but being realistic.
    I haven't set any short time goals yet suppose really i should, Mfp says i should have 2020 calories a day but i tend to stick closer to the 1200. I don't want to lose the weight to quick because i want to keep it off but obviously if i had a magic wand i would wish to be down to a size 14 as quick as possible have no saggy skin and not have to worry what goes in my mouth.

    Hi all! I have had a set back & need to get back into it!! Would appreciate some new friends! Quit logging for 2 weeks & gained 4 lbs! I am determined to lose 10 lbs by Christmas. I walk my dogs 5-6 days a week 30 min a day & have been jogging once a week but need to increase this. Also I think I want to try really cutting carbs - my weight is all in my midsection! Thanks for any help you all can give me :happy:
