    Go see my profile, I'm 5'1", SW 151 lbs, CW 120/122, GW 100-ish; there are a few old "fat" pics there. No current pics yet as I still have 20 lbs to go (or maybe less if I gain enough muscle). People are finally starting to tell me I look skinny again but that's only because I hide my muffin top under my clothes. I've always had skinny wrists even when I was 30 lbs heavier so it helps with the illusion of weight loss, ha ha!

    After I finish 30 Day Shred I may post my before/after pics; I'm halfway through it and definitely seeing a NSV with looser pants.

    I am 5'1" and currently weight 157. I was 117 about 5 years ago, then I've just slowly gone up and down. I had some health problems last year, was depressed, and the weight just packed on. I started working out and eating better this month and have lost at least 5 lbs since. My goals in order: Get to 140 by August 15th; Get to 130 by Sept 15th. I realize those are lofty goals, but I have gone to low-carb & am already gluten free. Also, I've started doing Zumba classes every week and working out at home on my Gazelle. My high school reunion is in September, so that is a great motivator for me! I haven't really learned how to add photos but i will when I can! We shorties have to stick together!! :-P

    WOW!! you gals are such an inspiration!! I am 5'2 ( I like to say 5'3 on a good day!! ) Right now I weigh 143 I carry most of my weight in my butt and thighs..never in my boobs I wish I had some there!! LOL My goal is between 130 and 133. I weighed that last year so I know I can do it, why I let myself put back 10 lbs?? I think it was I quit doing portion control and still worked out but quit running. I believe running really helped me keep my legs looking good...so this am I laced up and pounded out 1 mile it sucked but I did it!! I will post my before pics! Also how do I get that weight ticker on the bottom??

    <-- I'm 5'3. September 2012 to now.. at the same weight!

    I gained 13 pounds between September and January. But I've lost all that (yay!) and I am currently at 127. I'm not sure if I really have a goal weight in mind anymore after seeing this picture, although I won't say no to a lower number on the scale! lol.. but my profile picture is me 10 months apart at similar weights. The right is what I look like currently, thanks to decent eating (I mess up sometimes!) and heavy lifting!

    PS. Everyone looks so great :D way to go little ladies hehe you're all doing great!

    I'm a little shorter the the requested heights at somewhere in the 4'10.5" - 4'11" range. I float around 112-116 lbs or so. Not quite ever able to make it fully down to the 110. But honestly, I'm pretty happy where I am. My profile pick is a couple of months old but is with me firmly in the range I've been maintaining in. Great losses everyone! Oh, I'm 32 with one child. Some perspective ;).

    I'm 5'3" and I currently weigh 140 lbs even. My body was built with a pretty small frame so for me, that's a little on the heavy side. The most I've weighed is 165 (pre-mfp account.) The thinnest I've ever been is 125 but this was in high school when I was much more active. But even at 125, I still looked a little bit on the thicker side. Again, I think it's just because I was built with a smaller frame. I'm 21 years old now and I would like to be a constant 115. I think, for me, that would look the best. No pictures yet. :)

    great PROGRESS and now such an amazing look- so inspiring, I'm 5'2 too and if you can...I can :) You look simply stunning in your wedding dress and I think it's so great that you've kept it up...go you!
    Hello there! I am 26, and I am between 5'2" and 5'3"... When I started my weight loss journey, I put a starting weight of 232 lb, but I have a feeling at some point I may have been a little heavier than that! I got engaged and lost about 42 lbs or so before my wedding in October of 2012. As of now, I have lost about 67 lbs. My ultimate goal is to lose 122 lbs to reach 110 lbs - maybe more depending on how I feel once I get closer to that weight! I have had a couple months off here and there, and I have done all sorts of things for exercise, C25K, Zumba, Kosama, etc... And I've always tried to log on here, sometimes more than others. I also drink TONS of water! Over-all, I am so happy with the progress I've made so far, and I can't wait to continue on to my goal weight! Here are some progress pictures!

    These are me at or around my highest weight....

    This is after about a 15 lb loss...

    These are around a 40 lb loss...

    And these are my most recent pictures at around a 65 lb loss (weighing around 165-170 lbs)...

    Anytime I get discouraged, I always just think of how far I've come, and how happy I will be when I finally reach that goal weight. As you can see in a couple of the pictures, my husband is quite a bit smaller than me, so that is another huge motivation. Also, my parents are trying to lose weight, as are my sister-in-law and some of my friends, so I try to think of myself as a good example and a great motivator for them! If you ever need some support, feel free to add me!

    Love these before and after pictures! I have a long journey ahead of me... I'm around 5'1" and weigh 254.2lbs as of yesterday. When I was 200lbs, 4 years ago, I managed to make it to 135lbs... but didn't maintain for long due to medical reasons and my own stupidity. :(

    Since I did once before, I am sure I can do it again, but this time I have over double the weight to lose. :( I'm always looking for motivation and buddies. So feel free to friend me anyone!

    Hey there fellow shorties :wink: !

    I am 5' 2.5" on a good day and just 5' 2" on a bad one. I am trying to get back to a healthier weight. I am 45 and my highest weight in life was 216#. I still can't believe that. Weighed 121# in high school. I working on my fitness goal of reaching 150#, I am making good progress and enjoying myself doing it thanks to Zumba, free weights, targeted floor exercises, MFP, and my heart rate monitor. I love the immediate data because it helps me figure how I eat more of what I want and STILL lose. Each time I lose my wardrobe increases exponentially. That is my big reward. Love wearing my old stuff I refused to give away! :laugh: No Goodwill here. Your personal posts are very inspiring. Keep it coming. Have a fabulous day. :flowerforyou:
