5' - 5'4 with only a bit to lose?!

Options
I'm not new but love new friends with similar goals.

I'm 22, 5'2, and 133.6 lbs (started at 140lbs) looking to get to 125. I typically eat between 1200-1400 calories/day and work out regularly.

    Hey hey!

    I'm 5'4 and started at 140 with a goal of losing 20 lbs. I'm within 2-3 lbs of my goal right now, feel free to add me! I'm going to need major encouragement once I switch to maintenance.

    I'm pretty much the same as you! I'm 5'2 and i am currently 146 lbs, but i plan to get down to at least 125 (and then see if i'm healthy there, because if i am i plan to go lower as i think i can, because my body can cope with being a low weight as long as i feed it properly) and i'm also eating 1300 calories :)

    I'm so glad that this was posted because I was planning on posting something similar! I'm currently 5'3 and 138lbs, and I'd love to get to around 118, but more importantly I'd like to lower my body fat percentage! I'm pretty new to this site, and this is my first time posting in the message boards but I figured that having the support of others would really help me!

    Right now I'm sticking to a 1200 calorie limit, but unlike most people I really have a hard time eating that much! Most of my meals are naturally low in calories so I find that I have to force myself to eat sometimes just to reach a healthy limit!

    I'm really trying to do this the healthy way, so it's great to know that there are people with similar situations out there! Feel free to add me, I'd love to talk to you all! :)

    I am 5'2 and weight about 127. I am not so sure I actually want to lose WEIGHT...I want to get rid of my soft stomach and add some muscle... and I don't want to gain weight!! which is particularly hard for me this time of year :)
    I need some friends to keep me motivated!

    I am 5'3". But I have a bit more to lose. I have 110lbs to lose. Not sure I qualify for this. But I could use all the shorter friends I can find. :)

    Hi, fellow shortie here! I'm 5'2" ish and started out around 165lbs. Over 5 months I'm down to 145lbs. It's been SLOW going but I've consistently logged and tried my best (most of the time!). My short term goal is 135lbs (healthy bmi). I'm hoping to accomplish that sometime next spring...weight has been even slower coming off now that I'm getting close. Long term goal is to be in the 120's again. Feel free to add me if you want a consistent friend who is in this for the long haul!
