    I'm also 5'3" and am really enjoying this site!

    I've lost 15 pounds since December (I'm at 183 now), but best of all I've been able to start running again, which I love. I like tracking my exercise and getting rewarded with extra calories. I've never seen a plan that does that, and I think that's why I've had trouble losing in the past. If I do a long run, I can burn 600-800 calories, and being on a 1600 calorie diet that put me into starvation mode. Now I know why I was gaining instead of losing: too much exercise and not enough calories! I have a lot more energy now, too.

    Anyone is free to add me, and my food journal is public. I try to use the note feature too, so I can track special circumstances, weather or not certain foods agreed with me, or how I was feeling emotionally. I'm using MFP in conjunction with Celebrate Recovery, so it is important for me to journal and be honest with myself.

    I'm 5'3" and down 87+ pounds now (depending on the day lol) It's been a year since I started, and I'm basically done, just toning and firming now, and if the scale continues to go down that's good too. :) It can be done!! I have pics on my page. I started at 218.5 and I'm about 130. :)

    I'm about four months into things. I started off at 165 and now weigh 139 for a loss so far of 26 pounds. I still have work to do, but the pictures are the beginning of February, end of march and two nights ago.

    When you lose so much weight, does your skin shrink too? I'm 5'3. Started around 220 pounds and am now at 208. My goal is around 145-155. I've been wondering if I will have flabby skin all over or if it will shrink.

    I have loose skin, but I'm going to start seeing a PT to help build muscle and tone.

    @babymudd....I would guess 150-155. I weight a little under 140, so that's my basis for comparison.

    I'm just over 5'3, maybe 5'4 on a good day, haha. I started around November of last year at 180, after having hit a ma of 186 previously with working for Godiva, lost about ten pounds, got off the train for awhile, gained back a couple of pounds and restarted last week and have lost 2.4 pounds since then to bring me to 169.

    The thing that has helped me the most is eating better (fresh fruit, veggies, little to no meat, watching the grains) and doing some exercise. I'm not much of a runner (yet), but I have been walking, walking, walking!

    Feel free to add. =)
