So I've posted a few threads asking people for their opinions on certain aspects of dieting. But then I realized that maybe I could get a lot of useful information from women who have a similar body type to mine. So any ladies about this height and goal please add me!

    I am 5'5 and have 43 lbs left to lose. Although so far I have lost 12 pounds it is kind of discouraging trying to find the right things to eat along with a good variety. I weigh in tomorrow morning hopefully I have lost at least half a pound. I am still regretting the pizza I had on Friday night.

    It definitely can be done!! I've lost 19 pounds overall. I am 5'5 and started out in April 2011 at 172. I'm down to 153 now and would like to reach 145 by Christmas. Interestingly, I lost 6 pounds in the first 6 months but then I joined a biggest loser competition at a local gym with a good friend of mine and I've lost 13.5 pounds in just 6 weeks!! MFP has been paramount to my recent success and I've learned a great deal about food and how good eating habits are 80% of weight loss whereas exercise is only 20%. (Although still VERY important). Good luck to you and it gets easier the longer you stick with it! Feel free to add me too!!
