    I'm 5'2" and I'm a very muscular 157 my current goal is 150 which I'll re-evaluate then. Unfortunately I've also got about 10lbs of loose skin since I've lost >120lbs so far.

    I am 4 foot 10 in. Never got to that 5 foot mark lol. I believe I was either 117 or 119 when I first started working out last June, when I joined MFP I was 114 and now currently 110.5. I am trying to get lean and toned. Feel free to add. :)

    Hello fellow vertically challenged people! I am just shy of 5' 3". My start weight was 261. As of today I am 199. My goal is 145. Though I am short, I do not have a petite build...I have always been more "stocky" and muscular, but never "petite" as far as bone structure, etc. Good luck shorties!! We can do this!

    I am 5'2" and 211 lbs, and 42G. So I definitely know where you are coming from. I am setting my goal weight at 125, but I am also waiting until I get closer to that weight to have it set in stone. The doctor set my weight range as anywhere between 100-135. I know I will want to be on the higher end of that range. For one, I don't think my boobs will shrink that much. I have always been big busted. So I figure when I am happy with how I look and I am at a healthy weight I will stop.
  • I'm lovin' all the responses to this thread! Keep them coming! :)
    P.S. Have a very merry Christmas!
