    Hi - feel free to join me - 5'1", start weight over 170 lbs, now 161 yey - very lively almost 53 year old - but you know what - same issues!!! I've struggled for years - and now find this tool to be the best thing I have ever encountered! It makes me accountable daily, for what I eat (makes me think about making it count - ie healthy - and what exercise I do. It great to get the support from friends -stops you straying - keeps you on goal - and it is not fair that shorter legs put you into an ugly category! This is all motivational - I am currently enjoying being in a group doing the 30 day shred challenge - and I do believe it is good to have other people of same height who understand!!! Good luck anyway! x

    I'm brand new to this site too. I'm 5' 7" but at 243 as of today and I hear you on that breaking point. Just learning how to get around on the site and add foods to my list. Maybe we can help each other.

    Wow so many people my height! I could cry with joy :)
    I'm 5"1 and a bit and currently at 180 ( 82 kg) I have never weighed this much before even while pregnant!

    It is so good to find people with similar heights, it can get really hard to relate to stories, trials and tribulations of people many inches taller.

    Please add me if you want. :)
