    I'm in the same boat. 5"2 and about 208 lbs. I keep doing well losing 15-20 lbs and then falling off the wagon and gaining it back. I was about 160 lbs in high school and thought I was "fat" then.. now I would be thrilled if I could just get back to that! Feel free to add me as well :)
  • I'm 5'3" and 207 lbs as of today:laugh: . I was 118lbs when I was younger and I would like to get back to that weight or somewhere near it. Feel free to add me too, I need some more fitness buddies lol

    I'm 5'4" and 183 right now. At my highest weight I was 215. I lost 35-40 lbs a few years ago and 10 lbs slowly crept back on so this in January I started again at 192. Last time I got great results by eating 1200 calories, but this time I haven't so I'm increasing calories this week. It's a little scary but I know it's the right thing to do.

    Feel free to add me, girls. We need all the support we can get. :smile:

    I'm 5'3.75" and, as of today, I JUST dropped below 190 (we're talking 189.8 here folks...hooray!) I re-started MFP in January at 199 and it's taken some effort, plus a HUGE diet change (i.e., going wheat-free) to help me take the weight of this time.

    Just joined myfitnesspal (and taking it seriously). I am 5'2" and weigh 195lbs. I am at my heaviest point ever and would like to get down to 135lbs. I have decided to try to accomplish a 35lb weight loss goal first. When I met my husband (5 years old) I weighed 160lbs. Then I'd like to lose 30 more!

    I am 5'3 and weigh 206. My highest weight was 220 and that was around Christmas time this past year. I would really love to eventually get down to 120 (size 4). I would feel much more comfortable in my skin at atleast 140. That's how much I weighed 2.5 years ago when my boyfriend and I started dating. I really think I'm ready to be committed to losing this weight finally. I'm going on a beach vacation this July and I just dreaded being in a swimsuit last summer on vacation and I want to not be as miserable and self conscious this year.

    I'm 5'4'' and weigh 194 and this is my highest weight that i could remember and my lowest weight was around 118 way back high school..started to gain weight when i was in college..my weight has always been a yoyo..2011 i was around 160 and i felt good about it coz that was the lowest weight since the 118 then gained 20 few months later then i was back to 160 again then now 194. im dying to be back at 160 then probably should stay there or go for the ultimate goal of 120.

    The BMI chart says I'm too short ;)

    Im 5'3" and currently weigh 214 lbs.

    My lowest point was 140 in high school.

    Last year at this time I weighed 180 but fell off the wagon.

    Everytime I see a post about height at weight for 5'3" seems like everyone is a lot smaller.

    Just wanted to make a post and see if there are any other "bigger" people like myself needing some group support/motivation.


    I am 5’4” and did weigh 195 now I am 181. I have done weight watchers before and lost 17 pounds (from 187) then I gained 30 back (so that threw me into the 200 range). I think the smallest I have ever been was 155 and that was when I was 16ish. I am 32 now. My weight has always been a battle so I understand how you feel, but I am sticking to my plan better now than any other time before. I think MFP is a very helpful tool. I say stuff on here that I would normally keep to myself because I feel like there is a lot of support here.
    My whole family is little. I am the “big” grandchild, cousin, etc. Even my family says just stop eating so much. They don’t understand how hard it is. Here on MFP I feel like I can say that I am having a bad day and I want a big piece of cake and people talk me out of it, but they really understand. I think you being on MFP will help you too. Don’t give up! Just remember you are worth it!

    5 feet 5 currently 240.6...started at 267.

    Wearing a 20 an some 18. I did squeeze into a 16 the other day. I thought it was an 18. So you know I was happy I could close the 16 even if I could not come out the dressing room.

    I am 5' 3 1/2" and I currently weigh 207. I have a goal of 135 and to be healthy when I am that weight. I was that weight about 10 years ago but was very sick, so now I want to be that again. Though I am more into getting into size 8 again and not concentrating on the weight as much.

    5'2" and 189.2 right now. I started in February at 214.

    I was thin my whole life until I got my first "desk" job. I weighed 127 ish when I started that job, well within a healthy weight range for my height. My weight gradually crept up over the years, I had two kids, and now I'm finally getting myself back on track. I'm done having kids, so it's the perfect time for me to really get fit again. I want to be around for a long time to watch my kids grow up. :)

    ETA: Feel free to add me. My goal weight is somewhere in the 125-135 range, with an interim goal of 164 (which would put me as "overweight" on the BMI scale as opposed to "obese").

    I'm 5' 4" and weight well over 200 pounds. I gained most of the weight when I took an office job over 12 years. ago. I went from weighing 190 lbs and added 5 lbs a year. I know weigh 260 and its been a real battle. My kids are grown and gone and this is my time. I am trying to do this for me and for my health. My goal is to lose 50 lbs in the first year and 50 the second year. I know it won't be easy, but I have to do this.

    I weighed OVER 320 lb on my little 5'2 frame! I've been doing MFP or some other version of it for a year and half and I'm down 130 pounds! Still want to lose some more, but in the same boat. MFP is the way to go! :happy:
  • My height is 5'4" and I currently weigh 235. The lowest weight I can remember being in high school is 160. That is my goal weight, but I set up an initial goal of 200. Last year I weighed 200 lbs when I met my boyfriend, and now a year later, I gained most of it back. I am still with boyfriend and very happy, but am looking to shed those happy little pounds!!

    5'4" and 262. Want to get back to 225, which is what I weighed before college. Once I hit that target weight I will see about lowering it again.
