    I'm 5'2" (if I stand up realllly straight and tall) and my goal is 120ish, which is about a million pounds away (or so it feels). Friends?

    Measuring in at 5'8" but I have 50+ to lose. I could use and give lots of support!

    I come from the club of "she carries her weight well". I've come to the conclusion that is not complimentary. I want them to hear a new tune!:smile:

    I am 5'4" weighing in at 204.6! I think this is the heaviest I have ever been in my life!!! I just can't believe it! I started with Fitness Pal about 2 weeks ago around 210.8. I am setting my goal at 150, but I would love to get to the 130's.

    I'm 5'2" and need to lose 50 lbs. Or more. This is my (cough, cough) 5th time doing this. Everytime I get down to 129... and then immediately gain it back.
    Anyone can add me too. My diary is open to friends.

    I am 5'7" and I hear the same thing all the time... "Carries her weight well" - you are right, I wanna hear another tune too. Add me, this baby (granted my son is 5) weight needs to get a steppin. :) Need to lose at least 50 lbs.

    I couldn't help but chime in, I wanted to take the cake for the tallest, 6'3 (until some jolly green giant 8' plus comes and crushes my dreams :) and I have 85 pounds to lose! I'm always open for my friends. The more the better, that way when I go off the wagon there's numerous people to call me out and lure me back into the MFP lifestyle! :) Also I believe there's something to learn from everyone.

    Edited to also add I'm the only guy to chime in so far, lame! I guess my fellow MFP brothers are stacked with friend's or shy.

    I'm 5'3 and working to get rid of 50 or so. I could always use more motivation and encouragement on this journey and I will give the same in return. Almost at a 290 day streak and my diary is open to friends. Slow on the pound loss but I have lost over 20 inches overall. Feel free to send a friend request.

    Yep, I am 5'1 and want to lose about 100 pounds (to be 111). It just sounds like such a lovely, prime number.

    I'm also 5'4" and I have set my starting goal at 160lbs, which is the smallest I've been in my adult life. When I get there I will re-evaluate but I ultimately would like to be at 145lbs which takes me out of the "overweight" BMI. I started at more than 210, so that's 65ish pounds all together. Feel free to add me, I'm looking for some more friends for motivation :)

    I am try to get from 164 to 110. I am 5'3. I also have knee problems due to my cartilage hitting the back of my kneecap, so my cartilage is wearing away. The pain was not as bad when I was a lower weight, so I am trying to lessen the pain. Anyone on this forum, feel free to add me!
