4'11 - 5'2 ladies?

Hello ladies I am 5'2 and after YEARS of being about 105 at most about a year before I had my son I got up to 143. I gained 43lbs with my son and got up to 186 never thought I'd see that number again after he was born. I lost all the weight fast and then hit depression because of life with my ex at the time ballooned back up to 170lbs. So by the time my son was 9 months old I dedicated 90 days to get myself back and lost 50lbs! I was 120 and looked great. As with all things I thought I could handle adding a few things back, I couldn't. I went back to my old habits and although I was aware I was getting bigger and bigger I kept thinking it's no big deal I can get right back to 120 when I want to. It wasn't til I stood on the scale 2 weeks ago and saw 190(OMFG more than my pregnancy at 9 months along!!!!) and got a tiny stretch mark on my belly(never got any on my belly in my pregnancy) I am now down to 185 and although it's only 5lbs it's 5lbs I never want to see again and hoping to get down to 120-130 but mostly looking to lose inches and get in fit condition! Good luck everyone!

I am 4'11'' so hello fellow shorties. I want to lose 20 pounds. It is a matter of stubborn pride. I have a box of shame filled with clothes I can't even shimmy halfway up my thighs I want to fit into again and I have way too much money invested in bras my boobs no longer can fit into since my weight gain. But I will fit into them again dang it.

Ah! Me too

Bump

I'm a shorty and want to read this thread later

Im 5'0 and about 170 since having a baby - trying to get the 135lbs

Add me too. I am 46 years old. I am 5'0". I started a program in November 2012. I started out at 189. I am well on my way, but I am a yo-yo. I wanted to get down to 145. I am currently at 158.4. I am going on a cruise in 4 weeks and was hoping to be down to 150. I don't know that I can drop 8.4 lbs in 4 weeks.

Let's do this together ladies!!!

HI!!! I know exactly what you mean! I am 5'2", I will be 45 in April.

I weigh 177 as of this morning! I was a little less when I joined a few weeks ago! LOL. I keep yo-yoing.

Hang in there, let's do this together!

Hello fellow shorties!!!! I'm 5'2 and as of today 178.2lbs. My measurements are waist 44.5 and hips 45.5 and chest 38.5 ( so pretty much I'm round). . Please feel free to add me as a friend and we can support each other on this journey!

I'm 5'2' and used to weigh 180. I'm 138 now and measurements are 36, 28, 44. (44...I know... o.o but that's what the bridesmaid dress lady said). I wear a size 8 pants.



Good luck and keep going!

Wow you look amazing. It's funny how people carry weight differently. I am 5' 2" currently Around 116llbs but don't look anywhere near as good as you! You legs are so slim my are short fat and stumpy!!

Thx! I need to tone my legs too but the tan I had in that pic helped to cover the work I need to do on my thighs. I would love to be around your weight but hoping to get to at least 125lbs this year. I've always carried the weight more in my butt/hips/thighs, you can see in the pic my thighs at the top almost touch. More squats everyone says..ugh!

I am 5' 1/2 and I currently weigh 107lbs. I started out at 182lbs. It took a little more than a year to lose the weight. I am quite happy where I am at and have been maintaining since October 15th. I stuck to my calorie allotment religiously, ate some of my exercise calories but never all. I worked out with intensity and I still do. Also I eat the same way I did when I was losing weight. I call it sustainable eating. I look at it as a life long journey. I worked too hard to get the weight off and I love wearing fitted clothes again.

Hi ladies,

I am 4'11, some days 5'0 when I'm over confident and I weight 208 pounds. According to my height and weight I am morbidly obese and should weight between 115 and 125 lbs. the last time that I was 130, I was 20 and it was right before I became pregnant with my son. I am 30 now. I would like to lose around 80 pounds or at least be in a size 8, I see and hear weight loss stories of women who lose 50 pounds or more but they are all 5'5 and up. 200 pounds on a five foot tall woman looks COMPLETELY different on a woman who is 5'7..and so does the weight loss. Here are my measurements as of last sat, waist: 43, hips: 50.5 and legs: 27.5 I would love to hear from you ladies who are my height or close to it who are going on this journey of weight loss OR have a success story to share. If you have pics and measurements that you feel comfortable sharing thats great! I really need the motivation and to know that I am not alone. If you are this height, what are/were your goals? Thanks in advance ladies!

Hi!
I'm 4ft 10.

the heaviest i ever was was 154lb and that was bad enough for me

my mum is 4'11 and struggles greatly with her weight. She's in the 200lb mark
weirdly though she carries her weight well and in proportion and dresses accordingly
but as she's getting old the weight is starting to cause more problems

mainly on her legs and knees

if anything she needs to just get a lot of this weight off just for that but she's being realist and just wants to get down to about 12st for now (168lb i think that is)
which is still over weight but a lot better than where she's at right now

set yourself small realistic goals and then take it from there once you reach it

sorry, as she's get OLDER
Not old

blimey she'd kill me for that
