    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.

    I think that would probably depend on the shape type of your body. My waist goal is also 25 inches and we're the same height. XD
  • .I'm 5, 3 and need to lose 38 more lb. I have been on here since mid-April and have only lost 3lb.

    :laugh: 5'1.5" here!!
    5'1 when people ask
    &&
    5'2" when fitness sites ask :laugh:

    I'm currently 130, MAYBE 128 with water retention. :wishful thinking:
    I want to get down to 123, but ideally stay under 125. C:
    Only 5 more pounds! But it is just soooo hard. I love food too much to eat so little of it!! lol

    At least when we do lose a little it shows A LOT! :drinker:

    I am 5' 3" and working to lose 16 more lbs. Was hoping to reach my goal by July but it's slowed down quite a bit from when I started. I have a small top and bigger bottom. I am now 136-137 (fluctuate) and hoping to get down and maintain before my 10 yr wedding anniversary :heart: in September.

    Is anyone else dealing with both shortness and disproportionate top-heaviness? As a 32D, I feel like my weight loss doesn't really change my looks very dramatically. Busty women always seem to look heavier to me.

    Hi all!

    5'4" and 29 here!

    I started working on my weight last year in June. At the time I was at my all time high of 153 and very unhappy with myself. By October, I had myself down to 132. I slacked off a bit from November 2010 to February of 2011 and popped up about 4 pounds.

    So this March, I got my act together and joined MFP. Started at 136 and now down to 128 (127 according to this morning's weigh in, but I always make sure it sticks before I record it!). I'm smack in the middle of the healthy range for my height, but my goal weight is between 115 and 120, so I still have a little ways to go. Right now, I'm focusing on upping my endurance with hard core cardio and toning up my muscles.

    Hey i'm 5 foot 2 and a half! (yes I said half!)

    I have a total of 50ish pounds to lose (lost 11 already) I regularly feel like a rubber ball and am wishing to feel like a curvey stick!

    Good luck to all with your weight loss journeys

    I haven't experienced this but one of my best girlfriends has - she went from a 32DD to a 32B from long distance running. She became a marathon runner and swims.

    Hi y'all! I'm 5 ft. even. I've lost 7 so far with about 18 to go. The scale hasn't moved in a couple weeks and I can feel the frustration setting in. I need to do something soon because I have a dress to fit in to by the end of July that's about a half a size to small. Yikes!!!
