Females that are short!

I'm 5'4" (barely) and my goal weight is about 130-135. If I get too much below that, I look skeletal (visible rib cage at 125 was NOT pretty). I don't really judge myself by dress/pants size, since I have a badonk and will never go below maybe an 8 in pants, no matter how hard I try. Besides, 15-20 to lose isn't so bad!

I'm 5'1 and 130 ... Working for 120... Just talked to my mom today about my goal and she says it's unrealistic because of how much muscle I have. I'm looking in to getting my body fat checked to see what I can lose. Definitely based on body structure unfortunately

I'm 5 Ft also and I USED to be 120lb. When I saw that if I gained just 8 more boundes then I'ma be over weight I got really scary and started going on a diet .but know I'm 106 but my goal is 100 . And Good luck!

I am 5'0" and usually i was anywhere from 115-120. I joined the Marine Corps and dropped down to 108lbs. I was thin, but i was also very toned and had a lot of muscle because of it. Even now, i don't think I would want to be THAT tiny, but the number doesn't bother me as much. I'd rather have a lot of tone and definition and be muscle instead of just a lanky flimsy weight. Now 5-6 years and 2 kids later, I am more than i have ever been but I'm takin it a day at a time, and so far have lost 8 pounds. small amount so far, but it's progress and i'm good with that.

I'm 4'11" and 120 pounds. Try as I might, I can't seem to get under that number, but I'm not big by any means. I'm a size 5 and have a 26 inch waist, I still wanna be more toned in my tummy area and lose a bit more body fat. I want to be around 101, though.

I'm 4'11 and 53 years old. My weight range is at 92-128. I started my fitness pal beginning of June and have stuck with with it ever since. My weight when I started was at 147 and I am now at 117. My goal is to be at 115 but may try and go a litle lower after the holidays are over. I am feeling real good, better than I thought I would. I do have to remember to eat and can feel it when I miss or do not eat enough. I am finding that if I continue to exercise and eat healthy the weight comes off. There have been times that my body will stay at a weight no matter how hard I exercise and then out of the blue I drop a couple pounds.
Hang in there, I love this. I have done different diets in my time and this has been the best resource. Friend me if you like. I am high energy, love to go to the gym, love to try different foods and always looking for new friends.
Good luck to you!

I'm 5'0" and weighed 95-105 my entire adult life until the last few years when I put on a lot of weight!!! I started at 155 & lost a couple of lbs but it took a long time. Joined MFP a 6 weeks ago and have lost a lb a week. I would be happy at 105-110.

Good luck to you!

I'm 5'2" and at 120. I feel good here and am just trying to maintain now. I think the range of weights in the BMI are really misleading. It says I could weigh 102 pounds and be healthy but I think that's just too small for me and my body frame. Good luck!

Ditto here My smallest ever was 114 and I think I may have been too thin then. I'm happy with 120.

Im 5'2 started off at 69kg/151.8 lbs and my goal weight is 57 kg/125.4 lbs see how i go, i think its realistic. I guess I will have to see once I get there how to re-*kitten* my goal whether I want more weight loss or tone up!
