    hello all my lovely shorties!!!!

    5'2" and 130 pounds as of this morning... trying to get down to 115 by spring!

    I've been dieting up and down for going on 5 years now, was 155 at my heaviest so I know losing another 15 pounds is possible just have to stick with it! Been on this site for over about 2 weeks and finding it extremely helpful, supportive and motivating...

    Please feel free to add me if you have similar goals :)

    I can always use an extra push from a friend on Saturday mornings when I don't reeeeally wanna get up to go to the gym!!!!

    Just because you're short doesn't mean your appetite is short!!

    We shorties like to eat just as much as our taller friends, but alas, that is not allowed (if you want to be slim, that is).

    We can do it though!

    Yep, I'm short too. 5'1" and 162.5 as of today. My end goal is 120 by July, that's a loss of 6 pounds a month. But I'll take 130 it's only 4.5 pounds a month.
    hey we should definitely keep each other motivated. we weigh around the same and have similar weight goals so we are in the same boat! we can do this :)

    ME too!! Similar goals- Feel free to add me!

    I'm 5'5 and people always tell me I'm short, so glad someone else thinks it's not! I think my friends are all just giants!
    I'm 222 at the moment and wanting to get down to at least 140.... so I'll probably be here a while! If anyone's around the same as me feel free to add me :) (or anyone else lol)

    I am 4'10 I think I might be the shortest of all :) I am 115 lbs and would like to get back to 105. I started not too long ago and I really gave it a go these last 2 weeks. When losing 10 lbs it is pretty hard. I don't have any friends on the site but would love some support and would love to see others food journals for food ideas.

    I'm only an inch taller then you!!! lol
    I'm 4'11 and about 130 pounds. I want to get back to 100 by summer and fit back into my skirts and corsets that i miss wearing!!
    I've only been at it a few days but so far I think im doing great and I feel fantastic !

    I'm 5'4" and currently around 145lbs (normal range is 143-150lbs). My original goal weight was 150lbs and I've been at or below that since Sept 2010. I have no desire to drop anymore weight. I have a large frame and when I was down around 140lbs in the summer - I actually had people ask me if I was sick or anything because I was too thin. While I don't let other people's opinions control my life -- when many people (including family) are saying it? It is time to listen. I don't want to be any thinner than I currently am.

    For all the people saying shorter people can't eat -- I can easily lose weight consuming 2100-2200 NET calories a day. I've been maintaining while staying between 2300-2500 NET calories (and yes, I eat my exercise calories). So, not all short people require fewer calories. It is less about your height and more about your activity level. I work on my feet. I'm in constant motion while at work. And while I don't count it as exercise, it still burns a bunch of calories.

    I am 5'4" and at my smallest I weighed 135 and felt great. I could not imagine weiging 115 pounds. I just started MFP today and my first goal is 10 pounds. I weigh 168 right now which is heaviest I've ever been.
