    I thought I would take a shot at joining a group and see how it turned out.

    I'm a shorty at 5' 2", initially started at 186lbs. I'm down to 148lb today (sorry - I missed Sat), and my goal is 115lb.

    Lol, are their any other vertically challenged people in the group?
  • I refuse to WI on Saturdays simply bc it just never works for me...Besides, for some people it invites um obsessive behaviors.

    Fine! Be that way!

    Hug it out guys...HUG IT OUT.

    No no,..she is right. That was my 13 year old that I mentioned who responded and I apologize for sounding so petulant. The fact is, I HAVE become a little OCD about this whole weight loss thing. In fact, I was going to start a separate thread about that very subject. i guess here is as good a place as any. I can't weigh myself during the week because I get up at 2:30 every morning for work and I just don't think weighing myself at that hour would be all that accurate. I do weigh myself at night but, at least I know that weight isn't accurate. Also, I play with my rings a lot , making sure they are still loose. I guess my losing weight means more to me than I ever thought it would.

    Hey, do whatever makes you comfortable. If you don't want to weigh-in then you can post NSV's instead.

    No, I'll weigh in. I just have to settle down, is all. Don't worry. I'll be fine.

    We're all here supporting you!
  • My first weigh in for a month... 112 lbs. Yuckiness.

    Any progress is still progress. Big or small! Just know that your body is getting stronger every single day. That's ****ing amazing!
  • Yesterday was my first day starting this lifestyle change (I refuse to think of it as a diet). I bought a scale on a whim while shopping.....and

    5' 9" 199.3 lbs

    Made me pissed at myself for letting myself get this way

    I hate referring to it as a diet too! Diets are temporary. This is a lifestyle.

    As at this morning I M 212.5, down from a starting weight of 221.5 that was over the last 3ish weeks. My goal is 165

    I am 5'1" and like someone else mentioned earlier I am heavy boned and am under GP advice not to go below 165 until we can prove my body can sustain it without getting incredibly ill as has happened in the past.

    As for the boobs comment - I surgically had 4 pounds of breast tissue removed 5 years ago and am still carrying around a D cup that hasn't changed with the ups and downs of my weight over this last 5 years.

    AND I have to say this converting everything to pounds and inches is doing my head in!! Does anyone understand kg's???

    How tall are you? Are you doing this with medical support..... to me your weight seems normal unless you are well under 5' that is.......

    As of Friday I am 140.6 (11 lbs to lose to goal). I'm going to weigh Fridays and report Saturdays :)

    Good luck to all you fabulous people, hoping to find the encouragement from you folks to reach my goal weight by December when a tropical Christmas clad in a bathing suit is looming.

    The "D Word" is not part of my vocabulary. And I certainly won't spend the rest of my life drinking shakes, starved for carbs, or taking shots, to get ummm "healthy?"

    I am 189 which is also one up from last week so i need to do better this coming week!

    Anyone else around 5'6 at my weight with a goal of 140 ish?

    I am currently 184 and my goal is 150. I am also 5'6" and that goal was set by my doctor. I'll have to see if she revises it when I see her again in January

    Hi!

    Another shorty here - 5' 3.25". Started this MFP journey at 144 lbs, currently 129 and goal of 125 (medium frame) but hope to start more serious work outs soon so would be fine with the addition of some awesome muscle weigth:) Nice to have some company in the short stature department :)
