    I'm 5'2" also. I started working out about an hour a day too in January, mostly cardio (Insanity.) It took 2&1/2 weeks before the scale moved at all, but I was already noticeably losing inches (yay!) After the 3rd week I started losing about 1lb every week &1/2, so just keep at it. I think you're doing fine. :)

    How can you say she's doing fine when eating only 500-900 calories a day?! Got to be kidding.

    Working out is very important. However the biggest issue you have is your diet. You need to eat at least 1500 calories. That is your first prority. Then strentgth training, then cardio.

    Eat more and do strength/weight training 3 times a week and cardio 2 times a week. Measure yourself with a tape measure and beat up the scale :wink:

    I'm 5'2". Right now, I'm 133, but I've gotten down to 118. It takes time.

    Yeah I'm looking back at my food diary & seeing how my diet has fluxuated a lot. I was sick majority of the week 2 weeks ago & I was only eating about 500- 900 calories a day. Maybe my body is just trying to make up for that.

    You're eating too little!!! And measure yourself, don't just weigh in :) it takes some time, be patient!
