    Hi, I am 5 foot exactly, and boy does any access pounds show on a short person!! I weighed 210 at my heaviest back in June of last year. I am now at 145 and plan on loosing 15 more pds to be 130. My husband says I'm obessed with loosing weight, but I was tired of being fat!

    I agree with what you said about a persons body type. I am 5' 0 and I too am heavy in the chest, always have been. My husband says the girls are shrinking, which I think is a good thing. lol I've lost 65 pds since July of last year.

    5'0" here. But doesn't it make such a great difference on our small bodies once the weight starts coming off? Even the 4 lbs I've lost so far seems really noticeable to me :)

    hi all!

    I'm 4ft 6 1/2 inches, I told everyone for years that i was 4ft8in but now i have owned my shortness and i say it proudly! I am currently way way to heavy and i'm hoping to get down to 100 but i'm not sure that is even possible! I have never been that small in my life! I've always been chunky. My smallest was 125 in hs and i was still the "fat friend" lol. Anyone know what weight i should aim for? Feel free to add me, you can never have enough short friends lol

    Well, I thought I was short, but after reading some of these posts I feel like a giant at 5'4" :laugh:

    But I'm a bloke, so maybe I'm not really a giant after all - but then again, I don't want to be because I don't have a problem with my height (or lack of it). Having said that, if I was a bit taller, I probably wouldn't have to lose weight :ohwell:

    I'm currently 174 lbs, give or take a tad, and aiming to get below 160 lbs without becoming a skinny little weed :blushing:

    I know, I am actually awesome, but I think the "small package" thing is completely coincidental!! lol,

    I just get fed up of THAT saying being the motivational, 'GO KERRIE', speech I always get.... some variety would be good, when I need a pick me up... not just the "you know what they say about small packages...." *wink wink*
