Who is 5'1-5'2

I'm 5'1 but I think I am the biggest one here... I was 236.5 lbs in October 2011 I have lost 34 lbs so far and I have lots more to go... I'm hoping to hit my first goal soon which is to be under 200 lbs

My finally goal is to be 120-130 lbs

I gained lots of weight when my mother was dying from Cancer I became a emotionally eater. then got marry a few year later to my supported hubsand then had 2 wonderfuly kids 26 month a part


I want to be healthy for me and my family.

I am 5'2". Trying to lose 50 lbs by the end of the year. On 1200 calories. Finding it hard to get motivated to go to the gym but not hard to watch calories. If you are at the same place and want to motivate each other -- add me!

I started at 165 and got down to 120 by pretty much starving myself and doing 2 hours of cardio a day. BIG MISTAKE. The weight came back very fast and before I knew it i was back up to 140. Since then I have started lifting weights and cut down on the cardio. Now I eat a lot of protein and veggies and some fruits. Ofcourse I have cheat meals where I go all out once a week. But I try to get my body weight in protein in grams everyday to build muscle so thats about 135g.

My weight is going down slowly since I started lifting but I have lost a lot of inches and I am getting really strong so that I feel like is better than having a small number on the scale.

My goal is to be 125-130lbs and 18-20% bodyfat.

Hello!
I am in the same boat. I am 5'2" and have not weighed myself in a long time. At my last weigh in I was 158lbs. My goal is also 125lbs. I have the extra booty aswell.LOL.
I am hoping to reach my goal weight by April of 2013 which is only approx.2.2lbs a month. But it is very hard for me to lose weight. I have been having the best results with TurboFire and Shakeology.

I'm 5'1 and my cw is 165lbs. I would like to be at 125-130lbs. My nutritionist suggested I eat 1500 cals a day. I only lose wight if I bust my *kitten* everyday for an hr or more which makes it hard to stay motivated. I'm looking for friends to help me stay motivated and friends to help motivate.
Also anyone that is in the 5' club can you share your weight loss secrets if you have any?

Who is 5'1-5'2? What is your weight goal? How many calories do you take in? For clean eaters what foods do you eliminat

I'm 5'2, weight about 160 and looking to get back to 120. I cut out anything that I don't make myself (any of those healthy choice meals. I stick to the outside of the grocery store and only delve into the isles for rolled oats, cereal for my son and dog food) with the exception of my coffee creamer, I can't seem to let that one go! I snack on frest fruit and veggies through out the day and try to make meals with a meat, veggie and complex carb such as sweet potato or natural brown rice...It's made me feel much healthier going "clean" and I don't feel so sluggish and my stomach never gets upset anymore. Also no sodas, no artificial sweeteners, if I want to sweeten anything I use honey which I am trying to find locally now.

Hey everyone! 5'1" here and last weight was 128. Not sure what my SW is since I don't own a scale, and I know that muscle weighs more than fat, etc. so I'm just focused on losing inches and developing lean muscle mass. I've changed a lot of my eating habits and eat a variety of veggies, fruits, dairy (yogurt, skim milk, almond milk) and my starches are mainly wheat pastas or brown rice, but not much of it. I have also been doing the 30 Day Shred workout by Jillian Michaels for about 5 days now and drinking a lot more water than I normally do, also with unsweetened, fresh brewed green tea. Post my workout I drink a protein shake and thinking about adding one for breakfast. I can feel a difference in my body and see some changes coming along, but I find it really hard to eat back my exercise calories. Granted, the 30DS doesn't burn that many calories (200ish, I think?) so is that going to be a big problem? MFP nets me at 1200 and I get around 100 cals of that without eating back the excecise cals. It's really hard for me to get past that amount for some reason, but I do snack throughout the day and feel very very full at the end of my meals. Also trying to fit in some elliptical/treadmill for minimum 30 mins a week, so I'm expecting to increase calorie intake then. Ultimately I guess I'd be happy w/ 115 being toned with lean muscle definition, not bulky.

Any suggestions on what I have been doing and what I can do to get results I want? Thanks and good luck everyone! Support all around

5'2

My goal weight is 180. I love my curves i just want less of them

I love my curves too, but there are some unauthorized curves as well.

Hey everyone! I'm 5' 1" at a current weight of 176.2 lbs. I started back on MFP on Saturday weighing in at 181.6 I've used MFP before in the past with success losing 41 lbs after having my son but then it quickly piled back on once I met my wonderful boyfriend and got "too comfortable". NEVER again. lol This time around I couldn't be more determined to reach my goal weight between 110-115 lbs and MAINTAIN it once and for all. I consume 1300 a day, give or take, and right now the only exercise I'm doing is JM's 30 Day Shred since I need to ease my lazy out of shape body back into exercising lol Tomorrow will be Day 7 Level 1 and have lost 5.5 lbs so far since Saturday. Good luck to everyone on their weight loss journeys!

Ah the "comfort". It IS their fault isn't it?! LOL. JM's sounds so fun and challenging. Good luck with that!

I am 5'2 i started out weighing 142 my goal is 115 my second week doing this and i'm down to 138. How long is it before you start to see a difference. The other question i have is doing you have a 1 day a week splurge. If i do my splurge i feel so guilty . I also try to go to the gym at least 4-5 days a week

I'm 5'2" and I do 1200 calories a day. My goal weight is between 105-110, but I've always had a small frame and it's a healthy weight for me. I am vegan, and eat CONSTANTLY throughout the day, and sometimes I don't hit my calorie goal! I mainly eat fresh fruits and veggies, tofu, and some snack foods (rice cakes, granola, etc).

I'm 5'1".
HW: 250

I started mfp eating 1200 cals a day sometimes even fewer, had no knowledge what so ever of nutrition just wanted to lose weight. Now I'm currently at 1350 cals, working my way up to 1500- 1800cals for maintenance since I'm 12lbs away from goal.
I've lost 72lbs, 13%bf, and well over 50in. total & I feel GREAT! In my adult life, I've always been between 160-165lbs & size 14s, in college I gained the "freshmen 15" & then some..became pregnant with my first & hit the big 250. Now, I'm currently at 157, 33% (which is still high) & wearing size 10s.

I'm 5'2" - I normally take in around 1200, but sometimes I go as low as 800 when I'm not hungry. I started at 205lbs and my goal is 115 at the moment

I'm 5'1 and got up to 142 lbs while in grad school. My goal is 117 lbs and I'm down to 135 lbs. As an undergrad, I was underweight (around 98lbs) and I want to be careful not to let my weight get too low.

I've been trying to get to the gym 6 times a week and keep my calories around 1200. After reading some comments on this website, I'm afraid my calories might be too low. In addition, I'm worried that once school starts Monday I won't be able to exercise as often.

I am 5'2". I am currently at 156 and my goal weight is to be 125-130. I take in 1200 calories a day (sometimes less...but always pretty close). I work out 7 days a week....at least 30 minutes of cardio...I try for 1 hour.
