Calling all the FUN-SIZED people! 5ft and under

bump

I'm 5ft tall.

July 2012: 147
Apr 2013: 116

size 14 to an 8.

becoming an exercise addict.

always looking for friends.

I'm 5'0" and started at 200+ lb (I stopped weighing myself the day scale hit 200). I started at a *tight* 16W. I'm guessing my body fat was in the 50% range. I initially lost 50 lb with MFP but got off track this winter. I'm currently 167 lb, 33% body fat, and a (getting looser) size 14. My goal weight is 140 lb with a healthy BF%.

Feel free to add me.

ETA: Oh, and I'm 47 years old.

I'm not "fun-szied" I'm 5'6...but your thread title is soooo cute

Hi everyone..
. I'm vertically challenged too @ 5 ft with BIG hair!!! Haaaa... Hubby teases me as he says I'm really 4" 10' 1/2 but I'm sticking to 5 ft... Teehee... I have lost 24-27 Ibs total since the end of X-mas this year when I was really sick with the flu and a very bad case of bronchitis. I started logging on here and working out (Just Dance) for 3- 2 hrs daily except Sundays, 60 days ago.. i also started doing Callanetics as strength training 3x/week using my own body weight to do push ups, crutches, leg lifts, squats, hip rotations etc... I dance/workout at home....

I've been logging on here I believe 57 days and have lost 14 Ibs since Feb 17th... I am almost 41 yrs old, married to the love of my life and have two beautiful children, a daughter (6) and a son, (4)... I'm looking to lose around 88-100 lbs... I started out about 209-212 approximately last summer...I'm not exactly sure as I HATE scales and mine is an inaccurate piece of crap!!! Ugh... But, again, 60 days ago, I weighed 197 and now I am down to 183 NOT counting/including the 10+Ibs I lost while I was sick in Dec as I previously mentioned... AKA - my ticker says 14 Ibs lost, not to confuse anyone... I am looking for friends that want to be held accountable and be supportive of me and others during and after our individual weight loss journeys... Feel free to friend request me...

Ps -there are some CLOTHED pics of my progress thus far as I'm way too SHY to be posting 1/2 naked pics of me in my unders and bra for the whole wide web to see... :noway: :embarassed: However, they are private, so feel free to friend request me... Thanks!!!

Good luck to us all -

Latest progress pics"

Wow!!! U go girl!!!! \m/.

Not at goal, but I'm definitely fun sized! (5'0") :drinker:





Also, bumping because I love seeing the progress shots for us shorties!!

How did you get rid of the stretch marks? Did they naturally go away?

I'm 5 feet and three quarters of an inch but might be shrinking! I'm losing weight very very slowly but steadily so I'm not worried. I was a tight UK size 16 (sometimes 18) but bought some new trousers last week and had to buy a 14 so I think I've lost inches rather than pounds so far. That's encouraging.
I'm 157 pounds at the moment and would like to get down to around 126 pounds then see what that feels like. Years ago when I was in my late teens I weighed normally around 105 pounds but I rather doubt I can get back to that.
Being little I've found means we need considerably smaller portions. I've never been a big eater and my diet is healthy but I think eating normal height portions was my downfall.
I am experimenting with the 14/10 eating idea where women fast each day for 14 hours.. In effect this means eating my last meal of the day around 6pm then trying not to eat again until 8am breakfast. Just eating my evening meal earlier seems to have kickstarted my weight loss again. My late husband always preferred to eat dinner at 8pm or later and that was a habit I'd got into but earlier seems to be better for me. Being my husband's carer meant I wasn't getting enough exercise but I am now trying to get out and walk every day.

Not at goal, but I'm definitely fun sized! (5'0") :drinker:

Well Done!!!

I'm 4ft 11 and sit in around 127lbs

wow. you look great! 6 kids????? I am 5'3 so still vertically challanged and this is great inspiration

I'm at my highest weight in 5 years at 127. Only 5'0. However, I know that a lot of it is muscle because the last time I was around 130 I definitely did not look like this. Working on cutting at the moment while still keeping my lean muscle mass.

Wow, you have inspired me! I have 5 kids and my stomach looks like yours use to. I didn't think I had a chance of my stomach looking as good as yours afterwords. I can't wait to get there!
