GIRLS UNDER 5' 4" with less than 30 lbs to loose!

I am new to MFP and am also short! 5'2 and weight 155 lbs. I would like to get down to at least 130 (120 would even be better) but I figured I better set me goal to something reasonable. Would love to join the group for the extra encouragement and support, just do not know how!

Another new-to-MFP "fun-sized" girl here. I'm 5'1" and 108lbs. I'm not really looking to lose any weight, just lard . I'm built like a pear shaped weiner dog (sounds super sexy, huh...lol). I've got super short and thick legs, attached to a bubble butt, a long torso and a small upper body. I'd like to eradicate cellulite, increase muscle mass and build some monster endurance! I've got a goal of participating in a Tough Mudder event in September, and have a lot to accomplish before I am fit enough to do so. I've started running 3-4 days a week and am trying the "hundred pushup" series with pushups/sit-ups/squats. I'm contemplating ordering 30 Day Shred or Ripped in 30 for variety. I've also wondered if P90x would help, but it seems like a lot of $ to fork over for some DVDs...what do you all think?

Looking forward to going at this with others who can relate! We may not be big girls, but it's still going to take motivation and hard work to reach our goals...I'm confident we are going to succeed!

i find my favorite videos on netflix! they have a huge variety. we also had netflix before i started on MFP.

What have you found? I have some crunch videos but they are a little dated, I can completely tell the girls are from the early 90's haha. So any suggests of work out stuff on instant queue would be great! thanks girl!

LOVE this post! If there's any possible way to join this group (not sure how these things work...haha) I would love to! I'm 5'2" with about 25 more pounds to go...I started out at 150lbs, I'm now at 146lbs, and I'm trying to get down to 120lbs by the time I go back to school at the end of the summer (Aug. 22!) If I only get down to 125 that will be ok too, as long as I'm under 130! I definitely gained the Freshman 15 last year, and that was with a few extra pounds, so this is my summer to really kick it into gear and get back in shape!

I'm soo glad I found this group, I'm glad there's so many other wonderful ladies on here who are where i am, and have similar goals! I was starting to think everyone on here was moms, which really isn't where I am as a college student, lol. (Not putting down the moms...you ladies are completely inspiring to me!)

Love the motivation and support I'm seeing from this thread Feel free to add me as a friend...let's do this!

It is frustrating and disheartening as my old way of losing (1200 cal/day) isn't working. I am even gaining weight!! 4 pounds in one week to be exact.... I feel like crying. I dont know what is going on but I would love the support from the group and to be able to give the support too.

I gained a ton of weight over my pregnancy, despite eating healthier because I had been a chronic under eater.

What are you doing for exercise and are you drinking lots of water? I found that water was a huge part of my problem. Too much sodium not enough water.

Yay to all us girls under 5'4! I'm 5'2 and have 10lbs to lose. I've lost quite a bit already but I've been stuck at the same weight since last august. Hoping to shift my weight and tone up before my birthday in Nov at least!

I'm 5' 1" and need to lose 30 to get me to my 'comfortable' weight. (I hate that the BMI charts say I should be 120, but I haven't been that small since grade school!)
