    I'm also 5' and reading so many wonderful posts is helping to kick me into gear and start moving again. This Winter has been a long one and had made we rethink my original goal of 105. But no more, my goal is firm now and I'm going to get there! 51 gone, 49 to go.

    Yay fellow shorties :)

    I'm 19 and 4"10. I didn't realise until recently my BMI was so overweight (halfway to obese, eek!), i'm 135 and planning to get back into the middle of the healthy section at 101. Seems tiny compared to my friends but I guess my height must make much more of a difference than I realised!

    Wow! I have been looking for people who are short.... Well I am 28..... I became chubby in middle school and last year just started to lose.
    I am now 117-120. My goal is 105.
    It's been a long, hard journey....but now I feel so much better about myself, and have a lot of confidence.
    Even some guys are noticing me ( I know that sounds juvenile but I am 28 and have never even kissed a guy, or gone on a date, if only one would ask me out). Anyways well, this is exciting.

    I am glad there are short people because short people understand the weight fluctuations of short people.

    I am 5'0 and I weighed in at 205 after having my 3rd child ( he is now 9 months) but I can't blame the weight on any of them. I have lost 6 lbs ( 1 since joing MFP last week)

    I'm 5'0" and weighed 131.5 mid-march, am 125.6 now, and am trying to get down to around 110.

    I have been starting to exercise, but have only fit in about 1-2 a week (working on a set schedule instead of just saying I'll try to do more). I am also working on staying away from processed food (on an off for the last month) and I feel much better on the days I stick with it, than the days where I cheat.

    Wow I feel so tall suddenly. LOL I'm 5'1". In 2005 I lost a ton of weight doing weight watchers and walking/running. I went from about 155 to 118 and was wearing a size 4. I stopped exercising and started eating junk again and gained it all back plus a few extra pounds.

    I'm now doing it again but this time using MFP. I have gone from 164 to 148 since January. I've logged on every day for the last 100 days and am just about finished with level 1 of Shred. I also walk 3.5 at least 4 days a week with a friend. I have made my first goal of 16 pounds lost and now am working on my second goal of 14 pounds. I'd like to be anywhere between 120-125. That would put me in a size 4. Would love to be friends with more shorties.
