I am almost 5'1" tall and I need some short friends to help motivate me. I see these tall girls that weigh 40 lbs heavier than I do that look smaller than me and I get frustrated. I'm not saying that I don't want tall friends on here, I'm just looking for some shorter ones as well. I am trying to lose 20-25 lbs, I have already lost and kept off over 20 so I just want to keep it going :-) Thanks!!

    Wow, there are more short people here than I thought! It would definitely help to have input from others with similar body types and goals.

    I'm ~5'1" and my goal right now is to lose ~20lbs. I think my ultimate goal would be to stay around 100-110lbs, depending on amount of muscle.
    It looks like we have similar goals. Feel free to add me! :smile:

    FYI, it's not just a female thing. The same applies to shorter men, and not only from a weight perspective but from a . . . well . . . you know . . . . dating / mate kinda thing. Just sayin' . . . . .

    Know that for most people, whether you're short or tall, you're just as beautiful, and it took me a long time to realize this . . . . if they don't think so, they're not worth having in your life. Just a thought . . . .
