Who is 5'1-5'2

I am trying now to maintain, I am eating 1100 calories
I dropped another 9 pounds during this process. I can not believe it
but it is much harder to maintain than loose.

1. you lost 9 pounds while trying to maintain because 1100 calories is NOT MAINTENANCE. For ANYONE... (unless you are maybe 4'8", 90 pounds and bedridden.) Try more like 1600 to start. Give it a MONTH before deciding if it works or not, then adjust as necessary a LITTLE at a time in either direction.

2. It is lose, not loose.

I am 5'1 and weigh 110lbs-112lbs (give and take depending on water weight and time of the day).

I ate about NET 1200 a day for the past 3 months or so with 6 days of INSANITY.

I am changing my regime now.
I am eating about NET 1400 a day with 3 days INSANITY and 3 days WeightLifting.

Yay for eating more. I will try net 1500 next week since I do not see the scale moves higher. My waist remains same too. So it should be fine to eat more and add higher intensity of weight training.

Eating at NET 1200 is no fun. 1400 is better.

New here, figure I may as well jump straight on in.

I'm 5ft 1.8in, I currently weigh 162.2lbs and was 174lbs at my highest. Got down to 155lbs but had a glitch towards the middle/end of last year, put some back, spent ages trying to work out what I could modify to lose it again and then worked out my solution just before Christmas - oops!

My goal weight is 120lbs but I'm not committed to that - if I get myself to a healthy weight and decide I look great without getting down to 120lbs, I'll stop early.

I'm on 1300 calories a day, just portion-checking and making healthy choices wherever possible. Don't deny myself the occasional treat but always do my best to avoid them. Still, if a treat meal is within my calorie limit I'll allow it once in a while, and I do let myself have crisps on a Saturday and Sunday as part of my lunch. They encourage me to eat soup, because I get the crisps after - better that than indulging elsewhere!

I wanna join this "little" group! I'm 5'1" and currently 144#. My goal is to hit 130. It's not much I know but, great holy french fries, is it hard to get rid of this last part. I lost quite a bit of weight last summer. Weight I have never lost before. Now this is the REAL challenge: the last 10-15 pounds. UGH! The last time I lost weight I was in an awesome group. Let's keep it up!

My diet consists of portion control, smart eating, PURE WILL POWER and the occasional Skinny Cow candies... mmmmm...

Hi,

I don't know about losing 25 lbs in less than 2 months. It seems kinda drastic. Even with a modest 1-2lb per week that is only 8lbs by Feb which is more realistic. Unless you don't have to work and can just eat/sleep and exercise from now till Feb, It's almost impossible.....

I have a pretty high metabolism, weigh about 142lbs and I have to work out 6 days a week eating about 2700 cal per day to lose that 1-2 lb per week, plus eating clean. Overall though my goal is to lose inches. I can be at about 135lbs and at a sz 7 which I think is not bad for me. I'm 5' 2"

Hi everyone! I'm 5'1" and currently 202, I am set at 1200 net calories. My goal weight is 130, I've never been at a "normal" weight, but I believe this is my year. I'd love to hear any tips you would like to give. Also feel free to add me.

My favorite easy things (well, not so easy) to do to lose weight is PORTION CONTROL! Food for fuel. Snacks are my bane, so I make sure I have apples to slice and Stacy's pita chips around for a quick nosh.

I also hate drinking water almost more than I hate spiders and pepper, but when I was drowning myself in water, I saw myself slim down QUICK! My love for salt is always a constant battle.

I hope this helps at all. Feel free to add me as a friend if you want help or motivation!

im 5'1 & my goal is to stay between 105-110lbs. i feel best here. i also eat clean as much as i can. i feel i get the best results this way. i try not to eat any processed foods. so as close to its natural state as possible. as for like sweeteners and stuff. i use stevia and truvia, honey,,,molasses or pure maple syrup. i also have some agave but dont use it often. there are clean eating blogs if you search the internet. also clean eating magazine. i just order the clean eating diet cookbook so i could get some more ideas even if i have to tweak some to my liking. you can add me if youd like

i also eat around 1550 calories to maintain...if i exercise i could be eating anywhere from 1800 to 2000 depending on the exercise.
my goals are set at 40carbs 30protein 30fat

I am 5"' 2"...sw weight at 214.6 CW is 157.2. goal is 140 and UGW is 135. Im also a runner.

fish, chicken, oats, fruits, veggies
I also made room for fat free cool whip, l wheat thins and pringles, and the occassional slice of pizza

Its a lifestyle change..not a diet

I am 5 1 1/2. I currently weigh 131 pounds. I started on MFP in September at 142. My goal is 125, but I don't know if I can get there! I am interested in learning more about eating "clean". Anyone in the same boat....please feel free to friend me!

Im 5'2 . My goal weight for now is 135lbs . My heaviest weight was 180.9lbs ! but now Im down -27lbs . Im currently 152.8lbs .

Oh and I've lost 3 lb since starting 5 days ago, I've also just discovered the joys of soup!

(._.)/..I'm 5'1 sadly. My weight goal is 170 but my ultimate is 160-150, and I take in 1200 calories :-)

Hi new here.... what does ugw mean? that's awesome that you've already lost so much!:happy:

UGW = Ultimate Goal Weight..

I'm 5'2 and currently weigh 179 lbs. My goal would be 135 (ideal would by 120 but seems out of reach). I really started taking my diet seriously the past week and a half. I am extremely disappointed that after working out the last 6 of 7 days, and averaging 1400 cals over the past 7 days that I have not lost one single pound!

I have had my thyroid tested and they said it was "normal."

Hopefully I can find some support from you other shorties who are in the same boat.
