    You and I could practically be the same person. I'm 5'3" in your weight range and have a goal around the same area as you. Sweets, breads, binge/boredom eating are all my downfall. I'd be happy to make this journey along with you if you'd like to add me as a friend. :)

    5'5 here; I started out at 252 and am down 2 1/2 years later to 140. 147 had been my goal, but when I saw what it looked like on me I decided another 5-10 lbs needed to go.

    I'm 5'4" and have lost almost 10 pounds in the last 4 weeks or so. 150 is my goal weight as well, which still exceeds recommended BMI but if I was 150 I would be back where I was in my late 20's so that has to be good!

    I'm 5'5. I looked fine in the 150's but I was happiest at 135.
  • Yes, I am 5'2 and trying to lose about 75 pounds. Tall people do NOT have a clue about how much harder it is to carry every single pound!

    lmao, as this conversation came up at my doctor's office when I was commenting on how tall I feel lately at 5'5" - it seems that lately there are a whole lot of people shorter than me... She (at about 5' even) told me I was about model height... :tongue:

    I remember when I was always the shortest growing up... go figure...

    Yes I'm 5'1". I am 134 (according to home scales which means the medical scales are 4 pounds higher...ugh!) but I started at 159. I almost teetered over the edge for me (which meant I had to buy a whole new wardrobe..now that I'm not working...not good!)
    I am doing a muli-pronged approach to weight loss. do the 1200 calorie diet with MFP, drink two Dr. Oz green drinks a week for breakfast because I get bored with breakfast choices really easy and this helps me break it up and revs up metabolism, and I take carcinia cambogia ( which gives me a feeling of satisfaction and calmness that keeps me from doing unnecessary snacking..I'm a stress eater.) and I'm exercising everyday. 20 minutes of brisk walking at night (my mom had heart surgery so I'm taking care of her and can't leave her right now), and doing TTap (teresa tapps 15 minute workout plus..I've been doing that a long time, and doing three of Donovan Green's couch potato, and two knee injury and back pain workouts (chair exercises). I'm sloooooooooowwwwing losing weight. Sigh. with all that.Don't. Don't. Don't tell me to do anything else. LOL!

    My constant lament in life is that the world is made for people 5'4" and taller. Chairs are never comfortable so I'm always sitting on my feet, one leg tucked under. Clothes never fit right. Cabinets... Don't even get me started!

    I'm 5'2" started out at 188 in January. Joined here a month ago and went from 175.5 to 168. I lost 7.5 lbs and a boyfriend! Lol

    There was a time when I was taller than some of the boys in junior high.

    I was one of the tallest girls in my elementary school, and then I got to 6th grade and stopped gaining any height.

    My driver's license says I'm 5'2", but that's a lie. I'm 5'1" in shoes. I've gotten really good at climbing on things to reach higher places.
  • I am 5 foot 3 inches tall and some how I think I have a much better chance to take off my extra weight than I do to have a growth spurt at 43 lol.
  • I'm a shortie! Lol 5'3 current weight 180 d: feel free to add me anyone! I've been a lurker on here & wish to have friends (:
  • 5'5" just got serious about getting into shape, starting at 170 looking to get back to 140
