5' - 5'2" girls I want to hear your story and pics!

So glad there's a thread like this!

I'm 5'0 and have none of the luck. I have no backside or hips and only a small chest so all excess weight goes to my stomach. *sigh*

Being short is a challenge, and so is looking your best. I'm small framed, and currently 102lbs. I'm still pudgy though! It's so frustrating!

My goal weight is 95lbs, and I want to be strong and fit. Being short means taking a longer time to lose weight (lower daily calorie requirements) which I think is a fine thing. I just really hope I have the patience. I'm really inspired by the short women here. Please get in touch if you want another short pall on the path of health and fitness!

No pics yet, will post when goal is reached.

I'm 5' and weighed 169.5 about a month ago. I had my physical and my doctor told me I was border line morbidly obese. That put quite a scare into me and motivated me to do something about it. I don't think I look as heavy as I am but I think I was in denial until I heard her say that. I joined Zumba classes in April, 4 months ago, and have been going 3x a week faithfully. At first I wasn't losing any weight but then I also started counting and tracking my calories on MFP three weeks ago. I'm down to 158.5 and feel so happy to have lost these first 11 pounds. I'm 50 years old and have arthritis in one of my knees. At first the exercising was difficult but the more I lose in weight and the more I exercise the less noticeable the arthritis is. This is the most normal I've felt walking in a few years. Here's to continued success for everyone!

I am 5'3 but feel shorter. LOL, I started out at 170. I am now 128. I have been working out since May last year. Still progressing. You can look at my photos as well, its open. I dont have my first weight pictures, but the biggest one was last year about July. I was 165ish. Then the yellow ones are from April this year. I took the ones in pink today.

I am starting at about the same place you did, what an inspiration for me! It is amazing how short ppl can look so big and even loose 20 lbs and you can see a big difference too! The thing I hate the most is wearing heels to try and balance out my weight, not to mention being too lazy to hem most of my slacks. :flowerforyou:

This is just a stomach comparison (that seems to be an area we all want to see changes in.) I did this in 90 days by watching what I eat and working out. I do RI30 and DDP Yoga every other day and run 3 days a week.

Is it me, or does this look extremely unhealthy on the verge of looking anorexic??

I'm 5'2", GW is 125.

I think she looks great, looks like she has low body fat which is not unhealthy. She looks to be probably about 16-17% body fat. I'm 5'1.5 and would love to get to 18%

I am 5'3. I started at 205 and I'm only down to 187 (obviously not done yet). I don't have any pics up yet but hope to soon. I have been waiting for a topic like this to see ladies more relatable to myself. You all our inspirations to me! You rock!

Everyone looks great.
I'm 5' 2' and I just started my weight loss.
