    I’m 5ft but morbidly obese. I’d love to be friends with anyone who needs to lose a lot!

    Hi, I'm 5'1" and currently about 65 kg aiming for 50 kg. I was 72.5 kg a couple of months ago. Going quite well so far, but I'm on holiday right now and it was my birthday yesterday so it might not look so good when I get on the scales back home.
    It is hard when you're a shorter and older (I'm 68), but you can do it. Building muscle can improve your metabolic rate, that helps the weight loss
    Good luck

    4,11 and a half (must,nt forget the half) weight 103lbs lost 54lbs but took around 6 months, been in maintenance for about a year. You can do this!. I just stopped eating junk and started eating healthy. After a while you really enjoy all the added fruit and vegetables to your diet. I used to hear chefs on TV talk about the sweetness of things like carrot and peas etc and though vegetables aren't sweet what are they talking about!, But now I have cut out sugar from my diet (apart from natural sugar) I really know what they mean, so eating healthy is a treat. Good luck you can do this.

    Another short girl (5’1”) here. I don’t think I’ve been 112 pounds since before I hit puberty, though. Lol.

    I started at 200 pounds right before Christmas. I’m currently down to 153 and trying to get to 130 (top of the healthy BMI range), at least. Anything else I lose after that will be a bonus!

    Anyone who’d like is welcome to add me. I log daily and honestly. I’m far from perfect, but I’m happy with the progress I’ve made so far.

    5'2"! I just started on MFP at 150 and have a goal of 140. My real goal is 130 but 10 lbs sounds like a much more reasonable goal that will keep me motivated so I'm starting with that. It is hard to lose weight when smaller -- we don't get to eat as many calories!

    5'5" ... so I'm right on the cusp between short and average (I still walk on my pants though...). I'm around 148ish and would love to get down to 130. For exercise I typically rock climb, walk/hike and sometimes strength train when my climbing partners can't make it. Feel free to add me!

    I'm 5'3". I gotten to goal before multiple times and I've gained back 10 because I got tired of tracking after hundreds of days straight. So I'm back on here to get back down to goal. I married a chef and it's making it a bit harder. He's always trying to feed me!

    I am 5ft2 (157 cm) and currently weigh 108 lb (49 kg) with 20% fat, so a lot of fat around belly and other unsightly areas. I am hoping to lose about 4-5 kg and observe to see what my belly does. I will also be watching my face and boobs because they seemed to start to suffer the last time I tried to lower my body fat percentage. Anybody else has sort of similar goals/concerns?
