    5'1" and 3/4... :laugh: On a journey to lose 77lbs. I tell anyone who quotes the BMI scale at me to bite my *kitten*. Even when I worked out five days a week and was on a super strict diet, my lowest weight was 142 which would still have me at obese. :grumble:

    Thankfully, my family doctor doesn't believe in judging anything just by one category. He calls it lazy doctoring. I've had all the bloodwork and tests. I could use some conditioning for my heart but I have Neurocardiogenic Syncope, so it's never going to be top-notch. Other than that, even at 223lbs, I'm considered healthy in his eyes. Crazy I know, but I didn't get this way by eating lard all day long. I've never been a bad eater, I just have a crappy metabolism, always have. -Again, it's part of my disorder- I could literally sit around eating only lettuce and I'd balloon up. :grumble:

    But for my own sanity, my poor bad knees (dislocated both playing sports), and my love of fashion I'm working on my health. Since I've NEVER been 100lbs in my adult life, my Doctor and I arrived at about 160lbs being a healthy, maintainable, enjoy-life-able weight goal to stick to.

    So, here's to us Shorties! Life's harder on us, but that just makes us better fighters and, hey, it's easier for us to reach the tender spots. :wink: :laugh:

    I am actually just under 5'2" and I started with 80-90 lbs to lose last year. Sadly, I only lost 33 lbs in 11 months, so I still have 50-60 to lose.

    I will tell you though, if you lift heavy, you can weigh more and not look like it! I have pictures on my profile of me at almost the exact same weight, but on one I am obviously morbidly obese, and in the other one I just look fat.

    Great work! I don't think I've seen a better example of someone weighing the same and looking so much different as your side by side pictures in your profile. I've recently started NROL4W and this was a nice motivation boost for me. I am struggling to lose my last 10 pounds, but if I can "shrink" like you have and stay the same weight as I am now, I'll consider it a success!

    ETA: I am 5'2" and have been aiming for 115 lbs.

    4'10"
    Current weight 135lbs size 6

    My goal is 119lbs-110lbs

    I aim for 800 calories a day...sometimes I go a little over 1,000, but usually not too much more. I had weight loss surgery last year, so no, I will NOT die b/c I eat less than 1200 calories a day :)

    I've been lazy the past few months, no working out. But i NEED toning ASAP!

    5'2 I'm 117 and toning up. I used to think 108 was my goal but now I realize it's a look and feel that I want, not a number.
