  • I'm 5' 2'' and 10 lbs heavier than I should be for my height and "petite" frame. I'm working hard, though, to take it off!

    I'm 5'2" (possibly closer to 5'3") I have about 10+ pounds I want to lose... :)
  • I'm 5'0". I'm nowhere near your weight...but I am definitely working on getting there. Right now my goal is to weigh 140 lbs which might seem like a lot for my height, but I haven't weighed that since middle school 17 years ago!!!

    And in the words of the awesome Kristin Chenoweth ...."Life's too short. I'm not!"

    I am fun size, not short. 5'3. Ok. Probably more like 5'2ish, but the ish pushes me to 5'3.

    I have short stubby legs though, so I look even shorter. Surgery can tuck me and suck me and boost me, but it can't give me longer legs. Modern science blows!!!

    5 feet even, fully entrenches me in the short club.
  • I am only 5 ft even, I weigh about 130 right now, and wanna get back down to my 110-115 like I was in HS 5 years ago. I just started with my fitnesspal about 3 days ago and I am hoping for the same great results you all are getting! The support IS amazing! :smile:
  • Yes! i am 5 foot even.

    I am 5ft 1, although you could round me up to 5ft2 when I wear my heels to work. My starting weight was 157 and I just hit 130, so maybe 6 more lbs to go. I tend to be on the heavier end of that "healthy" BMI spectrum-I tend to be muscular. Not a bad thing, I'm just happy my bootie fits in my jeans again!

    5'3" and a quarter! My high was 172, I started here at 160 and got down to 145 but then fell off the wagon and have put a bunch back on. I'm too nervous to see exactly how much so I'm starting this round's weigh-ins on Feb 1.

    I put my goal here of 120 but really I would be happy at 130 which is the lowest I've weighed since I can remember. At 130 though I am still a size 8/10...I got them wide hips...

    The 'secret' to success? Eat healthy, track your calories and exercise a lot. Sounds sooo easy right? Aaarrrghhh ;)

    i'm 28 years old, 5'3" and a half and between 127-128 lbs with a medium/large frame (for being short at least)...i'd like to lose a few more lbs to be 123-124 by april for my wedding...my biggest concern is getting toned though so even if i don't lose weight, but i see some more definition, i will be happy :)

    Well I'm 5'0 and started working out November 18, 2010. I weighed in at 193.8 and got on the scale this morning and it said 181.4...that goes up and down so I will just say I'm 182 lbs.

    I have joined the 40+ Challenge, for folks 40 years and older - I'll be 44 in March. My goal is to lose 10lbs by Feb 26, 2011...I know that's really big...but i will try...to be honest will be happy if I lose 6 to 8 lbs.

    Well good luck to the 5 feet club

    :love:

    Yep, I'm 5'3" and 150 lbs (my goal is to be 110 to 125)! I love being short, though there are cons as well. Like I hate how if you gain just five pounds it is so noticeable! I also hate having to hem all my pants because they are too short. haha :) Also, as an actress my height can work to my advantage... sometimes. haha
  • 5'2" here and have a long way to go till i get back to 115lbs. That was what I weighed when i met my DH in college, I would (and i bet DH would too) love it if I get back down there. My first goal is 135lbs which is healthy BMI range, but I have about 50 lbs to go get there. I can do it, one day at a time!

    i like to see short people success stories...i think we have it so much harder!
