    Hi there I am 4ft 11, I currently weigh 132 pounds and im trying to get down to 112 pounds. i have lost 6 pounds since the beggining of january and pleased with that so far. I agree that any weight gain really shows when you are shorter.

    I am 5'3", and I was hoping to get down to 103 pounds....does anyone think that will be too skinny, or is it reasonable?

    I'm 5'3" and I think it all depends on your body type as to what weight is best for you. I myself have a "buxom" body...my chest is rather ample and so I look better at about 120-125 lbs. When I weighed in at 110 my hubby said I looked anorexic and he thought I was just too skinny.

    I am 5' 3" tall SW :194 CW 176 and GW: 135 I haven't been 135 pounds since I was first married. Having kids, stress, laziness, etc caused the weight gain. I am doing something about it now! So tired of being overweight!

    I agree with what you said about a persons body type. I am 5' 0 and I too am heavy in the chest, always have been. My husband says the girls are shrinking, which I think is a good thing. lol I've lost 65 pds since July of last year.

    5'0" here. But doesn't it make such a great difference on our small bodies once the weight starts coming off? Even the 4 lbs I've lost so far seems really noticeable to me :)

    hi all!

    I'm 4ft 6 1/2 inches, I told everyone for years that i was 4ft8in but now i have owned my shortness and i say it proudly! I am currently way way to heavy and i'm hoping to get down to 100 but i'm not sure that is even possible! I have never been that small in my life! I've always been chunky. My smallest was 125 in hs and i was still the "fat friend" lol. Anyone know what weight i should aim for? Feel free to add me, you can never have enough short friends lol

    Well, I thought I was short, but after reading some of these posts I feel like a giant at 5'4" :laugh:

    But I'm a bloke, so maybe I'm not really a giant after all - but then again, I don't want to be because I don't have a problem with my height (or lack of it). Having said that, if I was a bit taller, I probably wouldn't have to lose weight :ohwell:

    I'm currently 174 lbs, give or take a tad, and aiming to get below 160 lbs without becoming a skinny little weed :blushing:

    I am 5'3" and I weight 101lb now. Lost about 4lbs since I quit exercising regularly. I have 3 days in a row of a small effort made, trying to build back up.
