Under 5'5" Shorties UNITE!

So, after reading about another short girl's success in losing weight, I wanted to create a group for those of us who are vertically challenged (and therefore find it harder to lose weight and see such big differences when we lose even a little of it). I myself am 5'3" and need to lose about 25 pounds. Feel free to post inspiration for each other or successes/failures or thoughts!
Hope to see this take off as a motivational group for us shorties! I tried to find a group like this but if I just missed it, then PLEASE move this thread or delete it, etc.
:-P

4'11" and needed to lose about 9-12 pounds, wasn't 100% sure since I gained so much muscle working out.0

Im vertically challenged!
21 and 5 foot 1 inch!!
i weigh 218lbs right now but i hope to get down to 160 by Christmas time.0 -

I am just over 5 feet tall, and I am with you! It has always killed me that I can say that I want to lose a few pounds and people act as though the tiny amount I mention is insignificant. On my frame, 5 pounds is a pants size. That's a big issue when some of my friends are closer to 6 feet tall. To make matters worse, I weigh 140 lbs., and I am a size 6 or 8. People look at me cross-eyed when I say I need to lose weight. 140 is nearly obese for someone my height! Ugh....0

5"3' and currently 146 pounds, started at about 152 pounds.. want to get to 128.. or around that area at least. I have to be able to do it this time!0
-
heh, sign me up - 5'4" as long as i stand really straight. my scale is not cooperating at the moment but i've dropped 18+ give or take, still have at least 20 to go. Very true that 5 pounds on us "shorties" is vastly different than 5 pounds on someone taller. :grumble:0

5'2 here! I have about 41 lbs to go. There's always room for more shortie threads on the site I'm sure. XD0
-
5'2 here.
I have a question!
My waist goal is 25 inches.
But I've seen some tall people with that goal (5'5")
So... should I be aiming for something smaller?
24 seems okay, but 23 sounds completely out of my league.0 -
5'4 here. I need to lose about 10-15 lbs.0
-
5'2 1/2" here!! Still around 20 lbs to go!0
-
