Hello, thanks for starting this discussion. I am 5'2" and currently 183, down from 203. It really is a struggle. I have to be really strict with food. I am open to any tips anyone may have. I try to eat 1200 calories per day but I find that when I exercise a lot I get really hungry. My theory is that it is all about calories, but I need quality and "clean" foods. I am following a book called "Always Hungry" by Dr. Ludwig. I like his ideas because he promotes healthy and balanced eating, cutting carbs. I have to eat way less than the book starting point advice. My daily goals are approximately: carbs<100g, fat = 50g, protein = 100g. I exercise six days a week and I am still trying to tune my exercise habits. Dori

Hi.
I’m 5’1 and 164lbs. I struggle sticking to my calorie goal. I start out strong but end up caving. I just finished a year membership with Noom. I lost 10lbs in a year. Very, very slow but I made some changes that I could live with. I still need to track my food daily and weigh to maintain and continue my weight lose. My goal is 145lbs.

I am 5’2” 146lbs. At my highest, I was probably close to 160lbs. I felt terrible and stopped stepping on the scale. I starting working out/weight training regularly a couple years back and that is where I started to see changes to my body composition. Some months I workout more than other months. Right now I am crushing my workouts 🍑 I am mid-success story, lol

oddsonv · January 2020

Hi pals! I’m 5’1” and I’m 131 right now and my goal is 120. I think it is so hard for us “shorter” girls because a five pound difference is noticeable. We’ve got this y’all!!!

watching protein intake to 100 grams and cutting sugars and carbs. light walking. hope to reach goal by April as my second grandchild is due, time to focus! keeping the daily log is helpful and accountable even if i eat an oreo or two and half bag of cheese puffs, my current weakness!

Thank you

I just stuck to 1200 calories a day, incorporated walking (almost daily) into my routine - no other exercise besides walking, whether it was on my lunch break, after dinner around the neighborhood or on the treadmill.. I walked a lot. Also stopped all drinks besides water or the occasional Diet Coke/Pepsi.. but I did have adult beverages when the occasion arose. It took a long time, but was worth it!

kmalik5 · January 2020

I'm 5'3", started at 197lb and I'm currently at around 155lb. Still have a long way to go, but I'm happy I've made progress

I've found that limited time elimination diets have worked best for me to help with controlling cravings. I did keto for a couple months last year and now I'm on paleo. It just helps kick-start the process for me and get me back on track and focused. Once I'm off, I try to only re-incorporate the healthier things I cut out, like oatmeal, natural sweeteners, yogurts, etc. and keep out the empty carbs.

I also try to run when I can and I use the Nike Training app for in home strength training. My friend group is really active as well, which helps! I probably play volleyball every other week or so, and we were hiking all summer long.

My goal weight is around the same as yours, so if you want support feel free to add me! It's a tough journey but totally worth it

That’s so neat to see such a direct side by side - Same clothes, same position, same everything! With that much similarity you can even see you weight loss in your FEET! Rock on girl!

corinasue1143 · January 2020

Didn’t notice the skinny feet until you said it! Oh my gosh, it’s true!
I was wondering if it’s the same pants and how they’re staying up, or if it’s very similar pants.

tapwaters · January 2020

berriosilona · January 2020

Wauw it's so wonderful to see this pictures of different woman. It's a good motivation to keep going. 👍

gmhester74 · January 2020

I am 5'2", at my heaviest on the left I was 150 lbs at 37 yrs old, 3 years after giving birth to my daughter. We'd gone on our 10 yr anniversary trip to Mexico and when I saw the pictures of me in a bathing suit, I knew I had to do something. The picture on the right is the first bikini I'd ever owned let alone wore,
I started WW and a workout program and was able to lose 25 lbs in 4 months and I haven't looked back since. 8 1/2 yrs later I maintain around 125 pounds. I have gone above that and below but have never let myself get back over 130.
