    Still so far to go, I know! But I'm 5'2 and I have lost weight before.


    The first collage is from 2009. I lost about 70 pounds. The second is from this year (I've had two more children since the last pictures) The before is from a wedding in the beginning of August, I was somewhere between 246 and 256. The second is from October 29th, and I was at 230. I've lost a couple more since then. Like I said, still a ways to go, but I thought I'd throw mine in :)

    I still have a ways to go before I'm at my goal weight of 140/130 (I'll see how I feel when I get to 140), but I'm feeling pretty good after losing 21 pounds since mid-August!

    Height: 5 ft
    SW: 180 lbs
    CW: 158.6 lbs
    GW: 140/130 lbs

    This is me at 131.8 (my starting weight was actually 136) and me at 122.8. I have lost nearly 14 lbs. This is the first time in my life that I have had the stamina to lose weight at all. I plan on hitting 115 or 110 and maintaining from there. I have not decided yet. I AM SHORT AND I AM PROUD! :) Add me!!

    5' here, 24 years old. I'm about 100lbs (first picture) and I started at about 130lbs (second picture). It took me about 1 year to lose that weight. My goal weight was 100. I lost mainly through diet, but I started lifting weights (deadlift, squat, benchpress, etc) this summer and fell in love. I jog 3-4x a week, somewhere between 3-5 miles and do yoga once in a blue moon, when my hips beg me to finally stretch. Thanks for posting this thread! It is awesome seeing fellow shorties!! hnbj3v7858b1.png

    I was in a similar position, having lost about 30 pounds and then maintained around 104-105 lbs. for a couple years at 5'2". Did you find you gained some weight after starting to seriously lift?

    MaoTzu Posts: 9 Member
    Yes, I've gained a few pounds. I actually lost weight to 97lbs (not pictured) and then gained a couple pounds from lifting (shown in that picture). In my experience, gaining muscle weight made me look slimmer and feel healthier/better. I lost body fat, too. I'm about 19% BF now, 102lbs, and a size 00 pants.

    I am 5'1'' and currently at 178. I am 43 y.o. Tried to lose weight and gave up many times, so I am starting again now. Previously I was able to lose 20 lbs max. Hope to be successful with this latest attempt. I am starting to feel effects of excess weight on my health now.

    I'm 4'9 and have reached my half way Mark. I've lost 58 lbs this year and am looking forward to the next 58 being gone as well. It isn't letting me post any pics at the moment though.
