edited September 29 in Motivation and Support
Hi Ladies! If you're 5'3" and under and looking for some new friends and motivation for your weight loss journey, then you've come to the right place. This is a Round 2 challenge for some of us, but we are welcoming newbies to our group, as well. We had a lot of success in the last challenge, and it was great to share stories and support with others who are of similar height and size to compare what works and what doesn't for us Shorties!

Week 1 of the 12 Week Challenge will begin this Thursday, July 21. Please send me the following information so that I can include you in the weekly results chart:

Height
Current Starting Weight
12 Week Challenge Goal ~ this will be your goal weight for the end of our challenge

Weekly Weigh-ins are due on Thursdays. If anyone has a challenge with this, please let me know, and we'll try to work something out. If your results are not reported for 2 weeks in a row, you will be removed from the results chart.

Please feel free to share anything that you think will make this challenge more fun: weekly mini-challenges, delicious recipes, successes, etc. And if you have an off day, know that you can come here to get the support that you need to start again.

I look forward to sharing this journey with everyone, and let the Shorty's 12 Week Challenge Round 2 begin! :happy:

    Hello to all and thanks for your interest to join us! So far if you have already inbox/messaged me or posted your stats above on the thread, I have included you on the new chart I'm putting together. If you would like to update your true starting weight this Thursday you can do that ~ just inbox me with a quick update. After that, your first official weigh in is due on Thursday July 29.

    :happy:

    Hi.
    I'm 4'11".... hoping that I haven't shrunk. (The nurse was having trouble figuring out my height the last 2 times and measured me at 4'6" about a year ago and then at 4'9" a couple months ago. But, really... most of my adult life I have been 4'11". So, I will go by that height until someone measures me who is an experienced measurer). :wink:
    Weight: 149 pounds (this will likely be changed when I weigh on a proper scale on Thursday, but for now my crummy scale......)
    Goal: 10 pounds, I guess? 139 pounds... to be in the 130s will be great!

    Well after doing a few calculations (I'm a New Zealander so work in centimeters and kgs) I found out that I'm short enough to join this group, YAY!!! I've just come back form a holiday in Italy, which meant I pigged out on pizza and pasta for a month :( so I really need this challenge to kick start my healthy lifestyle.

    Height: 5ft 3inches
    SW: 246.5
    Goal: 226

    Thanks for letting me join!! Oh and by the way the names KJ.

    Yay for the Shorty's Challenge :happy:

    5'2
    SW: 143.3
    GW: 130

    My weight loss has slowed down a lot since the last 12 week challenge but if I could get down to 130 I would be very happy.

    Sorry no idea on adding the chart, I'm really bad at technical stuff :glasses: .
