    Hi, I am trying to lose a bunch of weight as well. I'm 5'2 too. I would be happy to support you both. I am hoping to lose about 70lbs, in just the last few days, like 4 or something since I have started using this site, I have lost 8 pounds! Friend me if you would like.

    Hi, I'm 5'1" and my goal is set for now at 138. At this weight (which I've been several times in the last 15 years) I feel and look great. I don't want to tell you what to do, but perhaps setting an easier goal first to keep you motivated. With 150 lbs. to lose you'll get discouraged quickly as it will take a long time. I started MFP the week before Thanksgiving and so far I'm down 18.4. I was 166 and now I"m 148. It took all that time to lose it which is frustrating and I was hoping for more, but. I too WANT to get into the 120's for my height, but depending on your age ( i am 42) it might not be realistic for me anymore. You can always change your goal wait once you reach it intially. Good luck and welcome.

    I have metabolic syndrome (the only part I don't have is the PCOS as I had a hysterectomy 5 years ago) and the doctors put on a diabetic diet. It can be done.
