    Fellow shortie here!! I'm 5'1 and was between 115-120 pre pregnancy....then had 2 kids back to back (less than a year apart from each other) and I got up to 170. I started on MFP when I was 164 and I've lost 25 lbs slowly but surely. If you look at my pics on my profile, you'll be able to see the progress I've made. My goal is to get back to 120, but if I can go more, 110 would be amazing. Love hearing from the other shorties out there!!! :heart:

    I just started my journey. Before getting married and having kids I weighed around 135 lbs. and I am 5 feet tall.
    I started losing at 210. 5 weeks later I am sitting at 198.
    I would love to see some before and after photos of people in my height range. I get a lot of inspration from before and afters. I just don't seem to run across many under 5'5"

    If you have any before and afters I would LOVE to see them. Thank you!

    I am also 5 feet tall and my starting weight was a little over 175 - I am now down to 129. I'm 46.4 pounds down (4 more to go til I hit my goal!)

    My before at 175.4 pounds:

    I am 5'2" and a mommy of 1. I weighed 135lbs pre-marriage/pregnancy, so I am aiming to get back to that number. I started my journey at 167lbs, but didn't take a "before" photo until late July. I gained 70lbs during pregnancy, so my stomach was messed up pretty bad...stretch marks everywhere and such! I am still in shock that my stomach looks the way it does now...never thought I'd see the day! It's been 6 years since I gave birth to my kid, but I never really did anything about getting "in shape" until June of this year. Before that, I fell into the trap of people telling me stuff like "You're married and have a kid, who cares about dieting, you'll just gain it all back like the rest of us!!!"...I really let myself go because of words like that, thinking it was true...then I snapped out of it. I don't regret changing my lifestyle around! Patience pays off that's for sure...it took a lot of effort to get into the new workout/diet I have now. Went from doing ZERO exercise and eating really poorly...to heavy lifting/cardio and eating high protein / low fat meals.


    I currently don't have a recent full body photo to share, but hope this helps!

    I'm 5'2". Before marriage, I weighed 110 pounds. After three only years (and I don't even have kids as an excuse) I weighed 137-140 depending on the day. My cholesterol was up and I have a history diabetes in my family. I was quickly at risk! That was when I decided to change the way that I ate (no processed foods) and adding exercise (I use the elliptical and weights 3-5x week). I'm now down to 124! I don't know how to post pictures, but once I do I will share. I also don't have a current picture. I'll have my hubby take one later tonight.

    Thanks for sharing all! We shorties should stick together! :smile:

    I LOVE this thread!! You guys all look amazing- thanks for sharing.
    I'm 5'1 and started at 145 which is a lot for my height (was 127 and gained a bunch of weight after a move) - we shorties don't have a lot of place to put the extra weight.
    I think I'm in the mid-130s at this point- not sure but I'm focusing on losing fat and getting really strong and fit!
    Sorry no pics but I'm glad I found this thread- made me happy to see people who succeeded on a journey similar to the one I'm on!

    I don't have any before pictures :(

    But, I am 5'1" and weighed anywhere between 120 and 125 for the longest time. I never had to worry about what I ate (I was a dance for 15 years, and also did diving, track, cheerleading, dance team, etc. in high school, on top of working at a baseball stadium where I was on my feet the entire shift). When I graduated from college this past May, I realized I was gaining weight a lot quicker than I used to. I had stopped dancing, and got a cushy desk job at an engineering firm where I sit on my butt 10+ hours a day. My weight then skyrocketed to close to 140 in a matter of 3 months! (I'll admit the wine and margaritas didn't help much either!). I recently joined the iLoveKickboxing program at a martial arts school near my job and have been going 2 times a week but hope to up it to 3 times. My goal weight? 115lbs. I'm currently down 4 pounds in a month and a half (I wish it would happen quicker), but I'm hoping to hit my goal weight by my boyfriend and I's 1 year anniversary (in March). I will take pictures soon and post my progress!!

    PS I visit these forums EVERY DAY to get the motivation I need to eat right and stay on track. Seeing everyone's amazing progress and reading their stories really lights the fire under my butt that I need. If people who have lost 100+ pounds can do it, hell, so can I!!! Keep up the good work everyone :)
