    I'm on the taller end of the group here, 5'3." I started out medical school 3.5 years ago at 140lbs. A couple of weeks ago I weighed in at my highest at 163.2. I actually think that if I wasn't active duty military I would have gained a lot more, but since I have weigh-ins and physical fitness tests every 6 months, I've kept myself from gaining more than I have. This last weigh in was the first time I had to get taped because I was over the weight limit for my height (luckily I have a good chief who knows the tricks of where to measure me so I'd come in under the upper limit). This last Monday when I weighed in I had lost 1 lb - I'm happy to start this journey.

    Most of you have lost more weight than I need to (I'm hoping to get back down to 140 for now, maybe try for lower after that). You all really inspire me to work hard and do well. Hopefully I can put up good pictures soon :-) Congratulations to all of you!!

    Sorry for the multiple posts, photobucket did weird things and my pics weren't visible anymore. And I guess MFP won't let you edit your posts after a certain time frame...

    Hello, this is my first post on this site, I was looking for some motivation from people around my height
    and I found this thread. I am 5.0 and weigh 170 lbs. I lost 10 pounds since the end of February by counting calories and walking but I stopped exercising and now I am stuck at 170, but looking at all this before and after pictures made me want to keep walking/running to continue losing weight. Thanks to all that have posted and I hope I can one day post my own pictures, I don't feel confident to post them yet.

    I'm 5'0", my highest weight was 213lbs. I lost around 60lbs 5 years ago or so and gained most of it back. I got back up to 190lbs and that was my starting weight this time. I currently weigh 126lbs. Here's some pics:

    You all look amazing! I'm 5'0" and I have lost a little over 35 pounds in 6 months. I'm still kind of a work in progress, but I'm excited to finally be working on my last 10 pounds!
