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

Little info for all of us tiny girls.....did you know that Jillian Michaels is 5'2? Total motivation for me! I don't have quite the workout schedule that she has:laugh: but still, she is my motivation...she use to weigh 175....now 115-120.

I'm 5'2" and I'm currently @ 133, lost 7 lbs in the last month and a half and want to lose around 15 - 20 lbs more.

What is everyone focusing on to lose? Excercise plans? Diet Plans? What are your long term goals?

I'm doing a bootcamp 3x a week and just started 30 Day Shred (on day 4). I'm also doing the Body by Vi Challenge about 1 month in. And weighing the possibility of beginning training for a 10k or half marathon by the end of the year.

HI! I workout out 4-5 days a week Cardio 3-4 days and weights 3-4 days. I love Zumba and burn the most calories doing this (about 500 per hour). I have lost inches and body fat, but my weight won't budge:sad:

I was thinking about getting the 30day shred....how are you liking it? I have run a marathon (never a full one again! lol) and several halfs. Super fun and challenging! Major calorie burn. However, I am really determined to be not just skinny but toned...even BUFF.:bigsmile:

My diet consists of 1200-1400(not including my workout calories, I usually add those too) calories a day...but I usually have a "cheat" day. I am going to try and not eat my calories burned and see if I can break thru this plateau....I'm just so hungry when I work out...
I eat lots of protein...my ratio is approx 35/35/30....
Good Luck to everyone and I'm so excited that this group was made! THanks!

I'm still here! Just updating.

Got to 144 pounds. The scale seems to say 143 then it pops around and decides on 144. Makes me think that the next pound down is coming soon!

I haven't been tracking my food - trying to do this the 'old fashioned' way of just making good choices.

I've been eating around 2000 calories a day (estimate) and I have all sorts of energy! I am starting to take my multivitamin on a daily basis again and I'm even thinking about some fish oil supplements.

I want to join in ! I'm 5'1" with 35 lbs to go.

Feel free to friend me for some mutual motivation!

I just wanted to pop back in to say that I love reading all of these posts, it is so nice to see that there are people out there in the same boat that I am! I lost 1 lbs this past week and was a little upset over that but my workout made it all better! I am doing C25K (totally reccommend it!!) and yesterday was my first big-ish run. It was a 5 min warm up, 20 min run, 5 min cool down.... and I did it all the way through!! I am thrilled to have run for 20 mins straight, it was a huge accomplishment for me. I decided my short, chubby legs might not bother me so much because they did a great job carrying me through the run

I am 5'4 and would Like to lose 10-15 LBS and TONE!! )

I finished my workout for today. Burned 470 from Turbo Jam CP1.
Good luck everyone!

Jillian is awesome! I look to her for inspiration as well!

5'2" with 15lbs to lose! OMGsh that sounds so awesome to me

5'2" wanting to maintain my weight or lose a pound or 2...do I qualify?? Just want to get inspiration on great workouts to do, esp since I'm getting busier with work..Need the motivation!!

5'1" with 35 pounds to lose. Close enough, right? 130 is my goal, but 120 would be oh so nice!

scale is not my friend today! I was so excited to be under 140 lbs at my weigh-in today, but i gained half a pound. I'm on day 9 of the 30 day shred, maybe my muscles are still retaining? If anyone else has done it, how long did it take before your weight actually started dropping? so discouraging! but I will keep going! thanks for any help
