    Thought I was 5'1" but just found out from the doctor I'm only 5 foot tall! What a bummer. My weight is at 121lbs. Would like to weigh 110-115 and I know if I keep it up I can do it!

    I'm 5'1, would love to be 5'3, I think the extra 2'' would be the perfect height!

    5 ft even, Sw= 143, Cw=128, Gw=120 or so.

    I will see how I feel about myself at that point and decide where to go from there. According to the BMI I could go as low as 95 and still be "Healthy" but I seriously doubt that. Maybe 110 at the lowest. I don't want to be super thin, just in good shape. Plus I don't want to loose the girls (boobs), lol.
  • I am 5'2", weighing 123 pounds. That doesn't seem like much of a reason to lose weight, but I'd like to get down to 103.

    I fall into the morbidly obese category and plan on fixing this by the time I'm 30.

    I am 5' and I think it stinks b/c every little pound shows up. I could gain 5 lbs & would be able to tell a difference in my clothes. But it's harder coming off. I've lost 8 lbs & am still wondering when I'm gonna notice a difference.

    I'm 5'3 and 165. I'm thinking I should be 130-140 depending on how I carry my weight.
    Most was 172lbs and lowest in last 4 years was 145lbs (when I met my gf).
    I started at the gym 5 years ago at 155lbs and weight more than I started but its got to be muscle for the most part.

    Me! I am 5' 1/2" (Like someone else on here... I thought I was an inch taller until a few months ago!) Goal right now is just 130 to get to a healthy BMI... that may not even be a healthy BMI since I lost an inch of height though!

    There are quite a few threads around here for shorties...

    I'm also only 5'3. New on here. I got to my highest weight of 200+ over a year ago. Am down to 178 and hope to be down in the 150s. I haven't seen the 150s since my 3rd child 11 years ago! I have a wedding dress to fit into in september so lots of work to do but I also have lots of determination!

    I'm 5'2 1/4" lol I'm at 145.6 as of this morning starting at 157 after having my second son in May of 2009 just quit nursing Dec 17th and was hanging at 155 or so (couldnt lose weight period with nursing even with doing p90x!) now its coming off and i'm so happy!! My goal right now is 125lbs and then see from there... Not sure i would look good at 110 or even 115 or 120 but we'll see haha my hubby really wants me to keep my booty and afraid i wont keep it if i lose too much! My prepregnancy weight was 138 and i still needed to lose some weight but was def much happier at that weight than 157! good luck shorties :)
