I think its tougher for shorter girls to lose weight . Plus the closer you are to your GW, the harder too . PLUS , when you are closer to your GW, every pound you lose usually makes a noticeable difference . Id say it is0

I did this weight for height thing online and it said I should be like 110-115 pounds based on my 5'2-5'3 height. Yet a BMI calculator says I am a healthy weight so it is really tough for me to lose weight here without making major sacrifices. I am a runner and I run to eat!0

It all depends on your built but honestly I don't think its healthy enough to be too thin unless if you happen to have small bones then its still reasonable to go on the lower range of BMI but otherwise, just stick to the middle normal range & maintain from there. Another thing, being thin doesn't mean you're healthy. The scale doesn't say it all, what's more important is your body fat % and your overall body composition. If you look at some athletes, they are very lean & yet if you ask them about their weight, you maybe surprised to know that their weight is on the "overweight" range of the BMI. On the other hand there are many who weigh less but have high percentage of body fat so that explains thin people with a pronounced belly pooch, saggy arms, cottage cheese thighs or a muffin top (aka "skinny-fat"). Aside from it appears ugly, being "skinny-fat" is dangerous & their health risk is the same as with overweight & obese people.0 -

I'm now, after my 3 surgeries since 2010, at the higher end of the "normal" range. However my height to waist ratio is very healthy. I just need to lose the fat that I accumulated while being inactive after my surgeries.
I am currently 134 lbs, a lot of fat solely around my lower abs, and quite muscular.
And yeah I believe it is more difficult for us to lose weight, one we're women and 2 we're short and in a healthy range so it will be more difficult to lose "the last 10"
Good luck to everyone on your weightloss journeys add me if ya want0 -
5'2'' and at 125 right now
but my goal is 115
but right now i am more focusing on non-scale goals like improving my running time and eating more clean. when i was 110 several years ago haha, i looked sickly at 5'2'' but thats just me! but this time i have muscles!0 -

YESSS I agree!! I'd rather be a lean 125 than a flabby 1100 -
Hey!!!! What about us tall girls? I'm 5 11 and I was a normal weight of 175 last year....now I'm 190...we ALL can do it!0

I'm 5'8" and currently 147lbs with a BMI of 22.3. Want to get down to between 130 and 135lbs eventually. Not sure why I have that number in mind though to be honest! Just seems like it'll be a good place to be
Feel free to add me.0 -

Tougher may not be true, but it seems to be so much easier for a tall person to "hide" 5 pounds! It's so much more noticeable on us shorties!0 -

For your height, the lowest you should be is 122. Otherwise you're underweight, and that is not considered healthy either!
Best of luck girl!0 -

Seems like a very reasonable goal
