    Hey short Gals! How are you doing? I fell off the logging wagon. Back at it today! Received some great words of encouragement from my MFP Friends! Thank you! What's working for others?

    5'3" and currently around 163#. As a short Italian girl who ate too many donuts while she was pregnant, I was pretty up there (read: more than my 190# husband) when I delivered in April 2013, lol.

    Trying to get back to a healthier range of around 140-145. Feel free to add me! :)

    I'm 5 ft 1 3/4 inches(yes I'm throwing in that 3/4 of an inch lol). I am 195 lbs and my goal is 125 lbs. I lost 55 lbs in 6 months with no exercise on the old WW plan after having my son---however, the demands of nursing school(crappy food, inactivity due to school) have caused me to put on 30 lbs in 6 months when I started my education. I haven't been able to take the weight off, and its been three years of being uncomfortable and miserable. Time to take my life back!!!! I just deleted and restarted a new account a few days ago, so add me if you like people! :)

    I just turned 42 on Mother's Day and I like to say I'm 5'1"on a good day. Truthfully, I'm sitting right at 5 feet. My starting weight was 208, I'm currently at 163 and finally, my goal weight is 120. So, half way there!

    Great job!!

    I'm almost 5'3. started at 193 and am currently 1/2 way to my first goal of 140.
    It's been a long slow and frustrating 10 months but progress is progress!

    Ultimate goal is 125 again.

    I joined MFP today, and I can certainly identify with short people! I am 5'1" and plan on letting go of 30 pounds and learning to eat mindfully.:tongue:

    I saw my doctor today and he said he wants me to lose 10 pounds by my next appointment in 3 months.

    I'm 4'10" and lost almost 50 pounds in 2012 using MFP. I hit a plateau and maintained around that weight for over a year, but have been backsliding in the last few months and have regained 8 pounds or so. My goal weight is 115, but honestly I'd be happy to be in the 120's. I'm finding it very difficult to get back on track.

    Short gals are just as beautiful as tall gals. As for the weight, whatever weight you feel comfortable with is the right weight. The Dr's say I should be 210-220 and I'm happy when I'm at 230. My goal is 220 but I don't get to worried. :-)

    I'm new here so if anyone wants a friend, feel free to add me! :-)
