Anyone who is 5ft 2 success stories please :-)

I am 5ft. 1/2 in., starting weight on MFP 182lbs., current weight is 107lbs. I have actually lost 83lbs since January 2011 and joined MFP in November of the same year. I know it sounds like a cliche but it is a lifestyle change. I realized that I needed to lose weight after seriously breaking my leg in July of 2011. I log in every day and mange my calories like my checkbook. I workout hard because I wanted to be super fit. All I can say to you is that it is worth every minute of effort to get to the weight you want to be at. I eat plenty of food, just healthy food and I always, always stay within my calorie allotment. I love being super fit and thin more than I want to eat junk. I recently logged in for over 400 days in a row. I am not bragging just pointing out that consistency, perseverance and the desire to reach your goal weight is key. When I reached my goal weight I bought new jeans. I eat the same way now as I did before I reached my goal weight in October. I call it sustainable eating. I will end here that I am a perfect example of if I can do it anybody can. If you are serious about working hard to get where you want to be then add me as a friend. You can do this!!

Hi!

I'm 5'2" too. I was around 125-130 pre-kids, had 3 kids in 3 years and gained an extra 40lbs along the way (more during pregnancy but I kept a good 40lbs on after/between them too!). This past summer after my 3rd was born I had settled back in the 165-170 range and was not happy with my body at all. I decided in September to start watching what I ate a bit more closely and start getting into better habits. I wasn't expecting major changes just yet since I was nursing and had not lost much weight nursing in the past with my first two. I ended up losing about 11lbs. in the first month (from 170 to 159), then in October I slowed down (and even stalled for a bit) and only lost a few more pounds. Towards the end of that month a friend and I decided to challenge ourselves and do the 30 Day Shred during November. I also decided to start tracking on MFP again. Shortly after coming back to MFP I found the "In Place of a Roadmap Thread" and figured out my BMR & TDEE and adjusted my calories accordingly. The weight has pretty much come off steadily since then, 1-2lbs. a week on average. In November & December alone I lost another 16ish pounds and I've lost about 5lbs since the beginning of 2013. All in all I'm down 35lbs and 3-4 sizes in clothes. I finished the 30 Day Shred and am working my way through Ripped in 30 and doing Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism now. As well as making sure I hit 10k steps on my FitBIt daily. I eat everything in moderation, just make sure I make good choices but allow myself my favorite splurges from time to time and stay in my calorie goals

This is my most recent before & after.

At 170:


From a few weeks back, around 138:


Getting under 130 would be ideal but for now I'm just taking it a pound at a time! I'm still exclusively nursing my baby too so things my stall out or may change when I wean her so it's hard to say

Best of luck to you!

AMAZING!
