Shorties Unite!!! 5'3" and under!!

shorties, that's me 5'2". I lose 3 lbs and gain 5 in a weekend . It can be so frustrating
weight 144 would love to lose 20.

Hi, Iam pretty new here. I am 5ft1 SW173 CW166 GW 125. Can I ask how you girls find losing? I am set to 1200 cals a day and it says I can only lose 1lb :sad: Have you found this to be the case? It seems like it will be a long journey as the more I lose the less I will be able to lose and I wanted to at least try and get the first 20 lbs off fairly quickly.

5'1" here current weight 131 goal weight 115-118

Hello!

I'm 5' 1/2"
SW-181
CW-145
GW- 130

This is my first time writing on a message board! Go shorties!

I'm 5'3" SW 160 CW 156 GW 120
Feel free to add me! I update every day

5'1...SW 165...CW 129....GW was 120-125 but honestly I'm happy where I am. Still trying to define and tone though

5'2" and currently 132 lbs
Goal weight is between 120 and 115 lbs. Not really stuck on the number, going more by how I feel in my clothes and what I think I can maintain

same, currently 130 and my goal weight is between 120-115 depending on how I feel once I get to 120.

5'1" here, current weight: 139, goal weight: 125 or less. Looking to gain lean muscle through strength training, plus added cardio via running and bicycling. I try to exercise 4-5x a week and watch my food intake via MFP.

As I get older, it's harder to lose so I'm definitely looking for support for us petite gals.

Hi Everyone!
Really hoping to get some support here, I think the hardest part of being unhealthy and unhappy with your body is that you tend to isolate yourself. I find myself saying.. oh I'll make more friends when I lose weight, or I'll start dating when I look better and the more you put it off the more alone you become. So I'm trying to make things happen finally! I'm 5"3 currently 193. I've lost weight really fast in the past (just last year I was 135) and always gain it back quickly. This time I'm trying to do it the healthy way, exercising and eating healthy. I know it's going to take longer but it will be long term instead of a quick fix. Goodluck to everyone on their journey!

I'm 5'2".

CW: 184.6lbs
GW: 125-130lbs

I've never been teeny tiny as an adult. Lowest adult weight was 130lbs, but I didn't start watching what I ate until I gained 55lbs during the pregnancy with my son. That was on top of the 15lbs I gained after I got married! I never got back into a healthy weight range after that.

I'm 5'1" (well, almost. . . I think it's more like 5' 3/4"!), 27 years old, and my highest weight (last spring) was around 118-120. That got me onto this site, but I never used it much until this winter-- I had a super active job last summer and lost a few pounds and gained enough muscle to look OK at ~115 lbs. Last fall, I had a challenging and very busy grad school semester, didn't exercise, ate whatever I wanted, and went back up to ~116-117. I have a small frame so that was a big problem and started doing this seriously in January.

HW:118ish

SW: 116.5

First goal weight: 110 (wasn't sure if I could go below this since it had been about 8 years since I'd been smaller than 110)

Second goal weight: 108

UGW: 105

It is not are hard as I thought! I set my calorie goals so I would lose about 0.5 lb a week. I've consistently lost a little faster than this the whole time. Now I have 1 lb to go to my goal!

My maintenance range is going to be between 104 and 106. I'd rather not get any bigger than I am now, since I have belly fat still at this size, but much smaller than 104-105 seems too thin to me. 105 was the lowest I've been as an adult (that happened 9 years ago in college) and I liked myself like that.

I've started strength training regularly since I need to do some recomposition and gain muscle and get rid of the remaining tummy without getting too much lighter.

5ft, SW 130lbs, CW (to be confirmed tomorrow) GW 100lbs (hit goal last week but assume quite a big gain as pigged out at Easter)

5'2" and about 118-120

I am 5'2". My goal weight is somewhere between 113-120. It has been so long since I have been in the 120 range I won't know until I lose some weight. My current Weight is 150 which is the heaviest I have ever weight. The last couple years I have a stayed around 138-145.

Hello fellow shorties! They say big things come in small packages but we don`t really want to be the "big things" do we? LOL! Okay, so I have done fitness pal before and I assure you, it works! You must be dedicated. So now I am back, not exactly liking what I see in the mirror! Even my spanx are laughing and telling me they are NOT miracle workers! LOL! So, keep it light and remember we are all here to support eachother. I am about 5 feet and weigh 120 pounds. Doesn`t sound bad? Well, I have my own built in life preserver and my shorts I wore last summer don`t fit. NOT GOOD! Even though I am 62 years young, Geeze that sounds old! I NEED to get this belly fat under control. So I am back and need to be accountable for what I eat and how much I do as far as exercise. We are all together in this so let`s go! WE CAN DO IT!!!!!!!!!!
