in Motivation and Support
I need more friends here - I'm 5'0" so my calorie needs are much less than most people's. I've been logging over 120 days straight and I have an open diary, plus I try to stick between 1100-1200 calories, all vegetarian.

Are you short too? Let's be friends!

    Love to! I'm 5' 1" and live with very tall people. Friends welcome! I'm mostly veg but flexible, lost 35 pounds a few years ago and come back here whenever I feel myself slipping. Need to re-tone and get rid of that last 5 pounds or so again. By the way, are you a Murakami fan?

    I am indeed- hence the username! Good catch :smile:

    5'1 closer to 5'2! Hello! I'm not vegetarian but I try to control my calories and portions without overdoing it. Started at 191 two years ago this month and have been bouncing up and down in the 164-169 range most of the last three months, I want to lose at least twenty more lbs and have been overweight all my life. (: let's be friends?

    hi I'm, 5'0. Looking to lose around 5 - 8 kg. I'm new to MFP, so really could use all the motivation and support I can get... a bit overwhelmed and don't know where to begin!

    I'm 5' 1-and-3/4" and I'd like to be friends. I try to eat around 1200 cal daily. I usually eat back exercise calories, but I think I need to stop to continue losing. I'm veg, but I did recently add fish back into my diet.

    I am 4'11 & 27 years old. I am trying to loss my 2nd baby weight and 2nd c-section. But it seems to have separation anxiety and does not want to leave. I am on a 1,400 low carb diet , no sugars. Definitely not easy, but the healthier me is more important than yummy sweet tea and doughnuts.

    Yes please! 5'1" on a good day.. I'd love to have fellow short friends who understand. Friends keep telling me 1200 is far too low. Whatever, it's working.

    Yes please! 5'2" here. My walking buddy is 6'...do you know how many steps I have to take to match her one step:) I have not been motivated to track food or weight in the last year, but 172lbs this morning - hoping that number will wake me up and motivate me to get back to a weight I feel comfortable with ~135-140.
