    4"11 and omg this weight i cannot lose after almost two years of giving birth. Statistics say for my height i should be 98-110 I'm currently 226. I cant even imagine being that small. My smallest was 170. My goal is 150.

    I feel your pain! I have to lose half my body weight as well. 5'3", 212 lbs but I'm determined to get this extra weight off. I haven't been at my goal weight in over half my life. Feel free to add me!

    I'm 31 with a hight of 5"3 and weigh 164.1. I have petite frame so can't carry much weight but after 5 pregnancies I've put on the extra 50. I've currently lost 12 with my program but would love other ladies to chat with and encourage each other. Add me :)

    Hello fellow shorties! I am 5'2 and hoping to lose 80-90 pounds. I just got back on the bandwagon this week and it's been kicking my butt! I'm trying to teach myself to jog and drinking tons of water! My short term goal is to lose 25lbs by the end of 2017. Weather you are trying to lose 1 or 100+ lbs I believe in you. WE CAN DO THIS!

    I'm 5'3 as well. I've had two children and my weight has been a rollercoaster of ups and downs. I went from 145 pre baby1, to 132 2 weeks after her. Then 155 when I moved into my own home then down to 138. I was still at 138 before baby2 then up to 174 full term and then down to like 160 until I got the mini pill birth control. I went up to 171 and now I'm back down to 151 and my ultimate goal is to get back down to 132lbs and to look like this again . This is my motivation photo . After my first baby and I felt hot at 41d9rd6hri1a.jpg

    A bit of an oldie too...
    I'm turning 55 next month. 155 cm (5'1") and struggling to maintain my weight below 52 kg (115 lbs). This is a normal bmi of course, but my lower half still looks huge...
    (For us shorties the 'new bmi' is said to be more realistic - https://people.maths.ox.ac.uk/trefethen/bmi_calc.html )
    I hope some of you add me as a friend...

    Hello from Canada!
    I'm 53 years old, 5'1" tall female, married and very happy, but 60 pounds over weight. Just looking for some friends to help motivate my bum to get back into shape. My friends and I are going on a outback canoe camping trip next summer. I do not want to be the old lady everyone feels they need to worry about.
    Please add me as a friend!!

    5'3, 24, with a starting weight of 265.5, and a current weight of 117.5.

    It always seems like every pound gained, makes a big difference, but a pound of weight loss, doesn't. lol
    It's a pain.

    OP, you sound remarkably similar to me :)

    5'3, 31 next month, started at 154 and hoping to get to 126 as an initial goal and take it from there! Add away - I don't have any friends yet but my diary is public. Good luck everyone!

    A-men to the short girls support group! I'm 5'2" and am at my highest weight ever. I've wanted to be 130 since I was like, 22, but that's never happened. My current goal is to lose 30 pounds in six months (by my 30th birthday). Let's support each other!
