    I am 4'11" and presently weigh 118 - 120. My ultimate goal is 103-105, but I will be ecstatic if I can reach 110. It is SO hard to love this weight! What are you ladies doing to lose the weight (exercise wise?)

    HI everyone

    I am 5ft 3" and am currently 212 pounds..ugh. My body has taken a beating after having 2 kids, my youngest is 21 months old..so more excuses. I am trying to shed as much weight as possible as we are going to be trying for baby #3 in the next 6 months. Please feel free to add me as I am looking to get and provide as much support as I can. I currently work out 4 days a week and am doing the body by vi shakes and have lost 4 pounds since the new year.

    @scjp926 and @ESMN: To lose more pounds, increase cardio intensity and duration!

    I am 4'11" also. I gained tons of weight with my first pregnancy and have been battling it ever since. I went from 183 to 131 (todays weight) I went all the way down to 123 for my wedding, but the second I took a month off to do honeymoon business I went straight back to 130. I am also trying to figure out how smaller people, like myself, can lose the last 15 pounds. I've been reading a lot about caloric deficit, and basically what i learned it to lose a pound a week you have to go 500 below your BMR. The problem is, is that us shorties who are not that heavy, our BMR is already very low. So for me to lose 1 pound a week I have to have a net of like, 750 or something. It seems wrong, but from everything I read, that is how "taller/bigger" people achieve their goals. I am going to do that, with a day or two with more calories to boost metabolism. Good luck! I will add you.

    Im' 4'11 delivered a baby at 222 on 10/28 (four babeis back to back since 06). Dec1st I was 199. Started the 30DS for 20days. I got down to 185 and lost over 15inches all over. I now do p90x an on my sore days 6week 6pack. I do not take any days off. I take pics every 10 days or so. By Wednesday next week I will take a new pics... kind of nervous. I do have a pic from start to the 20days though. I also take Adipex. My goal weight is 125. That is my normal weight. Ive always had a big butt thighs an boobs. Im a lil stocky. I cheered my whole life so I was also mostly muscle I guess. But it went down hill with my first pregnancy when I gained 75lbs. Anyways I dont go by the BMI bc their weight is very unrealistic to me. I think I would look like a dead person lol. Anyways I def carry all my weight in my stomach... like I said pregnancies. My downfall is eating. Im a small eater an not a snacker. I barely make it to 900. Today I am forcing myself to eat. Right now I am eating a salad after my workout an not even hungry but I know I need to get to 1000-1200 but its really hard for me bc I never have an appetite.

    How in the heck did you manage to lose all of that? Some days I feel like giving up completely!
