Hi everyone!

I myself am 5'1 with about 70 lbs to lose (lost about 40 since March already - yay!) I'm looking for people in a similar situation because I certainly know that those of us who are vertically challenged also have a hard time losing weight.

    Hey, would love to be added. I ma 5'2" with 80 lbs to lose. I'm also 50+ and on several meds which adds to my weight lose difficulty. I have been on MFP several different times, but am trying to maintain my focus. Would love to be apart of your team.

    Hi, I am Brooke and stand a whole 5'1!!! I'm concentrated awesome!! I have about 40-50 pounds left to lose. My goal is to be a size 12. For my height, that is still pretty big, but I will be curvy and that is fine by me :)

    Lord knows I fit in here at 5'2" and needing to lose 130 pounds! I need friends for encouragement. I am online every day, so I am a friend who can offer lots of encouragement too.

    I'm 5'2.5"... I started off with almost 70 to lose, though am down to 20 now.

    Good luck!

    Edited because I can't do math and need my ticker to tell me how much more there is to go (also, I'd lost abt 20 before joining MFP too :) )

    I'm 4'11" and i'm new to MFP so I have no friends as of yet. My plan is to eat healthier and loose some weight slowly until i'm still curvy but a bit fitter. I'm 29 years old, from the Uk and I have a 7 month old son. If any similar shorties can add me that would be awesome, thanks! :smile:

    I'm 5'3 and I lost almost 50lbs on mfp, but I've never really got involved in the forums, just read a lot of success stories, they're really good for motivation I think.
