Hey all! Just wondering what your starting weight at 5'2" was/is? What size clothes do you wear? And what is your goal weight? Measurements?
I'm 30 years old, have a son who will be 4 this Sunday and a daughter who will turn 19 months the same day! I used to weigh an average of 122 pre kids. I lost all of my baby weight after my son, but I have struggled for the last year and a half with losing it all after my daughter! I am stuck between 139-143. I measure at 37 Chest, 28 Waist, 36 Hips. I wear a pant size 4 and a shirt size medium. Dress size is usually a 6 because of the bust. I have been working out for the entire year and a half and have logged. I haven't logged as consistently as I should. Anyway, I would love to see 115 again, but I have always been pretty atheletic and 120 - 125 used to be pretty easy for me to maintain. Just wanting to hear some stories from some other ladies at the same height!!!

I'm 5'2, was 135lbs, aiming for 115 (though, like you, 120 is easy for me to maintain) am currently 129. I wear a size 4 dress, 30F bra.0

Hey I'm 5 2 and 36!!
sw was 121 cw 115 gw 112 !! I've had 3 kids and lost the weight ok after each but in last 3 years few pounds creep on. This Time i just decided to do something about it sooner rather than later. as last time when i started losing I was about 132 llbs couple years back. However I find it hard!! I'm not an exercise fan and only do it to lose weight and tone up. Saying that I only do an exercise DVD 4 times a week but its enough! I really like my food so can't do to " low" calorie either. I'm a size 8 /10. Uk size.
Good luck and keep going!!0 -
I'm 5'2 as well. I started as 170-something and a 14/16 and now go between 120-125 pounds and am a size 4 dress or a 4/6 in pants depending. It's been easy to maintain, the biggest 'thing' for me is not eating a lot of restaurant or take out food. That puts weight on me more than anything in the world. I was stuck at 144 for...ev...er..... I just kept doing what I was doing and eventually starting losing again.0

I'm 5'2 and currently weigh 136 looking to get down to 120. However I don't know how realistic this is going to be, I really don't look bad now. I wear a 4 or 6. Right now I have on a pair of Old Navy jeans and they are a 4.0

Thanks! It's kicking my butt, but I have some medical issues that make getting my weight down a priority. Main issue is combating that darn sweet tooth!0 -
I am 5'2, 34 and currently 134 lbs. I have been at around 125 lbs for the past 10 years and could wear size 3 or 5 pants with S or M shirts. I had my daughter a year ago and am still struggling to lose the last 10 lbs. I am currently wearing sizes 7 or 9 pants and M or L shirts.
Just started JM's Body Revolution, hoping that will help me shred those last pounds. I miss my old clothes.0 -
I am 5'2", 37 years old with 2 kids. I started in August at 218 and am now 187, currently plateauing but I hope to get down to at least 150, possibly 135 by the end of the year. I started doing EM2WL a few weeks ago. I am in size 16's right now. I would love to get down to a 10 at least!0

Thank ya ladies. It is weird to weigh 20 lbs more than I did before kids and not be a lot different in size. I do work out a lot more than after I had my son and I got back down to my pre preggo weight in a couple of months. I got huge with both of my kids. Pre ecalmpsia and tons of swelling.0

I'm 5'1.5. Does that count? hehe, I really want to maintain healthier weight - around 112-118 (50-53 kilos), but my frame is kind of odd, I'm really small on the upper part of my body, but my bum area is on the bigger side... so... 48-50 would look ok, but 48 would be hell to maintain.
Oh, I'm 124 in lbs (56 in kilos) now btw0 -
I'm 5'2, currently fluctuate between about 134-138lbs, like a lot of you ladies, this is about 15-20lbs more than i'm used to being. I'd like to get back down to 115-120, but what I REALLY want most of all is to get my shape/measurements back, those extra lbs really crept on and went straight to my tummy/hips/bum and now I have odd (for me) proportions - currently i'm 33 chest, 30 waist, 35 belly at navel, 38 hips - yep, a pear. I'm used to being more like 32 chest, 26 waist, 29 belly at navel and 34 hips, i'd love to get back to being closer to that regardless of what the scale says!!0

Well don't feel bad, I'm like a square, I measure: 35.5 Chest, 30.5 Waist, 36.5 Hips. If I could lose 2 inches from each spot, I'd be very happy!0 -
I'm more apple shaped! I am really short waisted too. My measurements used to stay at 35 to 35 1/2, waist 27, hips 34...Even when I weighed 113 I don't think my waist measured any smaller than 27...It's only 28 now...It's just weird to me how my measurements aren't a lot bigger than 20 lbs ago!!!0

I'm also 5'2. Started at 147lbs (according to my home scale) with a tight size 10 pant, and 34B bra, medium shirts - large if they cover my lower hips/booty. I am very pear/bottom heavy.
My current weight is 140lbs. I haven't lost much weight, mostly water weight in the first week, but have lost over 10 inches the past month. Size 10's are loose, but 8's are too small yet. 32B bra.
My goal weight is currently 125, but once I get there I may try for another 5-10lbs depending on how I look. Before having my child I was 95lbs, and a size 2 (nine years ago, sizes have changed since then) I want to keep some of my curves in my waist/bust, and below 115 I was flat as a board, and looked very unhealthy.0 -
When I stand in 5'2" of water, I weigh about 50 lbs.
I guess that means the bottom 5'2" weight around 190 lbs?0 -
I have the same measurements but bust is 34 and i have a LONG torso and short legs. I am 121-125 but i am only 4'11. Goal is 105-110 which is right for my height.0

You've been working out. Maybe you have more muscle and don't need to weigh 120 again to have the measurements that you had at 120. You could go by inches instead of by pounds.
I'm 5'4" and 120 is a good weight for my build.0 -
I'm 5'3" and currently 125 lbs. I wear a size 6 in pants and depending on the top a small or a medium. My waist is 29 inches, chest 34 and hips 38. No weight goal though since I'm focusing on building muscle right now.0

Hi - I am 29 years old - mom of two (9yr old and 3 year old) Just like you I lost the weight with my first one really quickly and then the second one seemed to "stick" We have similiar weights (last weigh in for me was 137 lbs) but you sound like you have more Lean Body Mass (muscle) than I do. My waist is at 37" and my hips are at 41" and I am in a size 7 right now
I am really trying to focus on getting into a fitness plan I can stick with (now that I lost alittle weight and have the food pretty much down)
My high school weight was 118 lbs and I would LOVE to see that one day - but my first big goal is 125 lbs
Gonna send ya a friend request if ok - always nice to meet someone in similiar situation0 -

Great!!! You look good in your picture!!! Our bones have a lot to do with our measurements too!!!0 -
I'm 5'2 as well. I started as 170-something and a 14/16 and now go between 120-125 pounds and am a size 4 dress or a 4/6 in pants depending. It's been easy to maintain, the biggest 'thing' for me is not eating a lot of restaurant or take out food. That puts weight on me more than anything in the world. I was stuck at 144 for...ev...er..... I just kept doing what I was doing and eventually starting losing again.
This is sooo good to hear - I was also stuck literally at 144 for the longest time!! About threw a party when I fell into the 130's. Now I am at 137 currently. Good to know it keeps moving if you just stick with it!0 -
Thanks - and you are right. So many factors involved - and I am learning alot about weight and how the number on the scale isnt always the best way to judge progress or health0

98.5 yesterday, but I've had a lot of cookies since then. (Caved on my resisting sweets challenge.) When I was younger, I was usually in the very low to mid-90s. I wouldn't mind losing a few pounds, but it is increasingly harder as I get older.
I've spent a lot of time taking some high-level sewing classes and am finally trying to make some patterns for myself. It's not enough to know how to manipulate the fabric and sew, you have to be able to fit the pattern or get it fitted. After hours and hours of work at this I want to be as healthily trim as possible.0 -
SW 184, CW 162. I am currently wearing a size 10/12 depending on the brand and M/L tops. My goal is a size 4 and S/M tops.0

Tops: Petite Size 2 (Petites are proportioned differently).
Bottoms: Petite Size 4 or in between 4 and 6. (Bottoms never fit well, which is one reason I gave up and decided to learn how to sew.)0 -
Hi, I'm 5'2, 46 years old and a Mom of 3 (ages 25, 18 and 4) and I'm stuck at 132. I wear a size 6 in pants and dresses, can fit in a 4, but they are TIGHT! Wish they made a 5! lol Anyway, I think at my age, I'm destined to be in the low 130's, which is fine. I started on MFP about a year ago at 153. Athough, for just even a day, I'd love to see the scale go into the 120's! :0)0

Hello. I'm 50 yrs. and 5' 2". SW 149.5 CW 121.5 Have goal of 115, but mostly want to lose fat from inner & outer thighs and hips/rear. Definitely a pear: 33 - 26 - 35.5. Lifting heavy weights helps give shape once the fat is lost via deficit eating. Just seems nigh impossible to lose much in my lower half!! I'm going to keep working. I wear size 4 mostly now - small shirts. Never know what's possible if we're willing to persevere and glean wisdom from others.0
