    4'10". Definitely a struggle. Especially when these types of fitness trackers measure a normal person's steps. It takes me 2 steps to everyone else's steps. Don't I get extra credit for that? Gotta lose 25ish pounds.

    I'm 5ft. Mother of 4. No specific weight goal but looking to get to a healthier weight to lower bp. I'm short so the slightest weight gain shows on my frame.

    4'11" here! My boyfriend is 6'3". Watching him eat all those extra calories is hellll! Been on MFP for 28 days and have lost 5 lbs so far. Wishing it was a bit more, but just staying on track, staying motivated, and working my *kitten* off! Wishing you the best of luck and sending positive energy your way. Short girls unite! ;)

    I'm 5ft and mum of 5.
    Agree with all the other comments, being small makes things 10 times harder.
    You only have to put on a couple of pounds and it shows.
    Always have problems with clothes too as too long and wrinkle round my knees!

    I'm 4' 9.5" I like to say 4'10". It is hard being short and any weight gain WILL show. I'm a mother to 3 amazing kids. It is hard to keep st my 1500-1600 calories a day. I have failed and failed. So lets try this again!

    I'm 153cm so I'm a shorty too! I'm a married Mum of 2 and have put a lot of weight on since I got married especially when I was pregnant so I have 80lbs to lose! Would love some more friends on here to help encourage me because I tried to do it on here alone just over a year ago and lost 18lbs but then lost my motivation and put about 6lbs of it back on. This time I'm gonna DO THIS!! :smiley:

    I'm 4'11" and need to lose 60 lbs. I'm Latina so I don't want to lose my curves. I have PCOS and it's never faced me until now, 44 yrs old and I'm struggling.
