    We just have to eat less. There are worse things in life so best not to stress about the things you can't change.

    Hehe. Yea, it's the curse, even relatively low weights *look* heavier on our short frames :( Oh well, only solution is to keep the pounds off :D

    I'm 5'2". I eat pretty well I just need to start working out more. To say I'm sedentary is an understatement - I rarely even get out of the house.

    I'm not overweight, I'm undertall :wink:

    5'3 here and topped out at 250 lbs. Down to 200 now but still have quite a ways to go until I'm happy.

    5'1 here, 30 more pounds to go. I gotta think that when you are a smaller person you should be less hungry at the end of the day, but I do admit it's a challenge a lot of days to stay within my 1200 calorie limit.

    I'm not quite 5 ft 2 and every pound shows on my small frame. If I were 3 inches taller ....

    Damn straight. If I could just grow about five more feet I'd look a lot thinner. :)

    I'm a shorty too. 5.0 ft It sure is a challenge. Eat less move more is my mantra this week.

    4' 10 1/2" here. Life just isn't fair when it comes to food and being short. Trying to come to terms with that.

    Eat less, move more and you will get there

    Me me me!! I am 5'1. After my kids I shot up to 150 lbs which didn't look so well on me, I am down to 134 now. Would love to get back down to 115 but numbers aren't my concern. Just as long as I can look and feel good, I'll be happy! :) Feel free to add me if you want! I don't bite lol.
