    5'1 here. I love being short. I never grew after 9th grade. Best part of being short for me: wearing 5 inch heels without problems. Worst part of being short for me: Weight. Working on that part.....:bigsmile:

    Hello fellow shorties! :) I'm 5'3" and currently at 164 (down from 179 about a year ago), so it's slowly but surely coming off. My goal weight is 140 by this summer. I'm determined to wear a bathing suit in public this year!

    Me! Me! Been short all my life :). It's like a country song for me "When I say I'm 5'1" I'm cheating.". I am 5' 3/4". I currently weigh 192 and a healthy weight for my height is somewhere between 115-125. I'm shooting for 135 and if I ever get there I'll be amazed! On Monday will mark my first week on MFP and my first weigh in ... Wish me luck!! And good luck to everyone. Pat yourself on the back for a sticking with it!!
  • Short and round. I'm 5'1".

    ahhh, the echos in my mind from my ex wife ... "I'm not short, I'm petite ... because there is no 'short' section in Macy's"

    I'm so jealous of you skinny short people!!! LOL! I'm 5'2" and I currently weight 152. I work out like crazy and keep track of everything I eat and can't seem to get to my goal of 140. My goal used to be 135 and I decided I would NEVER be 135. @ you folks under 120 - how on earth do you do it?????????? I must be doing something wrong - maybe I really do need to start eating more of my exercise calories. . .
  • I'm 5'1", and currently 180... as most of you know, the heigt/weight chart says im obese, although most people don't believe it! lol I can't believe 50lbs. need to come off me to get near a "healthy" weight.... glad there are other shorties out there like me! Godd luck to you all!

    Being 4'11" (rounded up), I used to say that you're not short unless you're under 5', making "short" an elite club. But times change, so I guess I'll relax my my club membership :flowerforyou:

    But I'll still take a lot of convincing that my clothes should be the same length as someone who is 5'4"
