5'2" 207lbs - 82lbs to lose!!

Are you me? Lol I started just about where you did and I have a similar goal The day you step on that scale and see a number that starts with 1 is gonna be the high point of your February. It was the high point of my October last year.

I myself is 5'2" and at my heavist (Oct 2010) was 212... I got tired of seeing myself at that weight. I don't have pictures because I now realize I didn't like taking pictures at that weight. But when I went to my doctor's and got weighed and was borderline diabetic I said enough. So I began working out; I first started using a different app to track my food but it didn't show numbers only a colored pie chart... I came across MFP in Aug and love it. I'm now down to 176.8 and my goal is 130. You can do it.. keep it up, check out nutrition info for resturants you like so you can make better choices and stick to it. I now have to reach 150 in order for my Dr to take me off of heart medicine; after that I won't be on any more meds.... :happy:

Hi, i'm new to this site.. but am 5' 3" close to you and weight in at 210/220 depending on scale.. lol.. I would love to do this with someone in same boat as me.. If you are looking for online friends add me as a friend and we can help each other out.. I have been tring well not to hard to lose weight since 2002, however now i have two kids who are very active and i can't keep up with them.. so now it's time to do this the right way and really get it off...hope to hear from you soon

Hi All,

I've finally decided to get super serious with weight loss this year (and moving forward) due to a number of health factors and just needing a lifestyle change. Im 5'2", heaviest weight was 219lbs and currently 207lbs. My aim is to get down to 125-130lbs. Im on 1200 calories per day starting yesterday.

Hi, my name is Phyllis and I'm 5'2" also, joined MFP 1/9 at 195 lbs, currently I'm 192.5. My long-term goal is to reach 110, but would be very happy at 125. If you would like to friend me, we can do this together!!!

welcome!!

I was there too! I am 5'2" and at my heaviest was 200 lbs. That was in 2008. Your goal is possible, as many have already stated. There are many who want to see you succeed! I got down to 125 last year, and slowly put some back on so it is time for me to get serious again. Congratulations on making the decision to regain your health! It will be the best thing you ever did for you.

Our measurements are the same! I just started keeping religious track of everything I eat and have already lost 2lbs this week! It's my goal to loose two lbs per week so that I can get down to my goal weight of 130lbs by November! It's so exciting to think that this time next year I will be 80lbs lighter!

I'm a shorty too! i'm at 1200 cals a day too, maybe we can help eachother out!

Well, I am in the same boat as all of you. I am 5' 2" and 195. I don't look in the mirror and don't like pictures taken of me. This is the heaviest I have been. I lost 75 lbs. through WW from 2004 until 2007 and then my mom got very sick and I gained it all back and then some. She passed away in 2008 but now I am dealing with my 91 year old father who we had to place in an assisted living facility last April. We recently have added Hospice Care to his regiment as he won't be going back to the hospital. I also have high blood pressure and know that if I can reduce my weight My son got me a Fitbit for Christmas and I finally hooked it up and wear it daily. I have linked this account to my Fitbit account and track all of my food on myFitnesspal as they have the best database of foods. This is my first week with the device. It has given me motivation to start again. Ideally I would like to be 120 but I will take 140 at this point.
