    I am 5'2" and have a total of about 15 lb left to loos Ive lost 7 lb already but know it has to be slow progress as I need to mentally adjust to smart food choices. I am doing the 5:2 diet at the moment to shift some of the fat and doing daily 30 min circuit training. Then I will be looking into maintaining my fitness and weight. :)
    really want to look back this time next year and say I nailed it !!!
    no more lying to myself about being chubby and happy time to be fit so I can chase my beastie boys and I want a fab round butt ;) not a flabby saggy one.

    Short term GW: 140
    Long term goal weight:130

    Hi! I'm 5'2'' and have lost close to 50 lbs. I'm working towards a short term goal of losing 15 more lbs, but would be very happy with losing 25. It's been a little over two years since I've started my journey (slow and steady), and I'll admit that I've been slacking lately. I want to get back to it, though. Feel free to add me!

    I'm 5'3", do I count?? lol I have 25-35lbs to lose. I got back "serious" over the past couple of weeks with my working out, after a serious migraine spell that was a few months long. The food part is what gets me, but I'm trying! I'll send you a request. :flowerforyou:

    I'm 5'1" and want to lose 20 lbs which will still see me over my so-called 'ideal weight' but I'm trying to figure out what my personal, maintain-able (if there is such a word!) weight is for my age, body shape and lifestyle, rather than my little height!! Last time I got to my optimum weight was nearly 14 years ( and two children) ago and at the time I thought I looked great but looking back at photos I looked quite gaunt. I'm older and wiser now and think if I get into the healthy BMI range it won't matter if I'm a few pounds over my ideal weight as long as I don't let it creep up again....

    I'm now in week 5 of the 5:2 diet which I have never tried before. I didn't weigh myself at all for the first four weeks but felt like I was losing weight from hips and tummy ( muffin-top!), weighed myself at start of the week (week 5) and was happy to see I've lost 7lb. I think the 5:2 diet is working for me mentally as I only have to count calories twice a week and I find it easier to resist that late-night toasted bagel if I know I can have it tomorrow! I'm using Myfitnesspal to track calories on the fast days only.

    Today is my second 'fast' day of the week and I'm trying to keep busy. I still feel motivated but we'll see what happens when the summer holidays kick in and the kids are around all the time.....

    Good luck to everyone out there....

    Me, me! Just started AGAIN today. Short term is in 30 days, planning a big family BBQ pool party. I want to still keep going after that of course. I've roller coastered from 130 before baby, to 170 after baby, back down to 136, now I'm back up to 156. I can't believe I let my weight get that high again. I just moved, and being a SAHM and not knowing anyone here yet, I don't really have anyone to hold me accountable. Of course, my sweet hubby tells me I still look great to him, bless his heart! So I saw 5'2" and thought "I'm IN!" I've been on MFP before, but never really stuck with it because we eat out alot and it was hard to keep track. And I've never done the message boards or joining with friends before. Hopefully it gives me more incentive to stick with it!! Feel free to add me!

    This ^^ almost exactly! A lot has happened in the past couple of years to distract me from the last 25 pounds.. It didn't take me long to lose my first 60 pounds or so, but the last 25 pounds have been a bit harder to lose and I lacked the proper motivation.

    Sign me up! I've lost about 4 pounds and have 16 to go. I'm currently eating on the Metabolism Miracle plan, which has been surprisingly easy to do. It's not low-carb, but you do eat very cleanly!

    I've been on MFP for a while. With tracking my food AND working out at least 3 times a week, I didn't see any progress for months. When I started MM I finally saw some results and I feel really great!

    Looking forward to meeting and getting to know everyone here!
