    5' 1 & 1/2" here. I'm trying to lose around 55 pounds total I guess, but really the goal is a ballpark. I just want to be healthy and strong again, and I want it to be a lifestyle change so instead of focusing on a number or a weight, I'm committing to a year of healthy living (daily exercise and staying within my MFP calorie counts). I'm closing in on my first month and don't know exactly what (if anything) I've lost because I'm determined not to obsess over the number on the scale this time around (but I am going to weigh in at the 1-month mark). I'm focused on healthy eating and living, not just weight loss. Feel free to add me if you like (anyone).

    Hi I am 5'1" and excited to see a group geared towards woman like me who are trying to loose. I am still in celebration mode, I just dropped my first 30lbs and have been doing the chicken dance (I can't dance). The best thing ever was rewarding myself with a Body Media Core, can't wait for it to arrive. Totally excited to join this group!

    I would love to have new friends... just add me!

    Hi everyone! I'm 5'4" (but still consider myself a shortie!!) and weigh 170 lbs. my original goal was to lose 61 lbs, but I've dropped 40 since February. I have at least 21 lbs to go, but think I'd actually like to lose another 35-40 to really be happy. Feel free to add me! It so nice to know there's such a large group of us out here with the same goals!

    I always get measured with my shoes on, or they just ask me a height...so I stick with 5'2". Might not be totally accurate, but I can stand to lose 70lbs, but working on a 50 lb weight loss goal.

    I am about 5'3" with about 30 more pounds to lose. I've lost about 15 pounds so far and loving it. It's amazing what fifteen pounds can do to someones self-esteem.
