    Speaking of diet..I have honestly never heard that short people need to consume less calories daily

    Really? The shorter you are the fewer calories you tend to need to maintain or lose weight.

    I am 5' 2". I am currently 150 lbs and want to get to be around 125-130. I think I am comfortable at about that weight, just want to tone up at that weight.

    Hi hun, im 5ft 1 1/2 ( always put the 1/2 as it makes a difference) lol. im currently 125 and want to lose around 10 - 15lb. i get people saying theres nothing on you blah blah blah but they see me dressed not naked and even a few pounds just swells up my waistline and makes my closthes so uncomfortable. if i was 5 ft 10 i wouldnt have a problem hahahahaha. good luck on your journey :)

    I'm 5'2 and used to be 120 in cheerleading/gymnastics in highschool but then got wayyy to big when I quit at ~180. I'm down to 138 now thanks to weight watchers and trying to make my way down to the 120 mark again.

    I am 5'2
    My goal weight was 127,
    but I am 115 now and this suits me best
    8 pounds to loose is very do-able
    If that is what you want THEN do it
    Do not let the nay-sayers stop you.
    You have to feel right for yourself.
    Good luck
