:smile: I've always had trouble finding people who are my height, which is strange because I thought it was a common height for women. Id love some friends on MyFitnessPal who are the same height and want to lose some weight, so we can support each other ^_^

My goal is 130lbs. What about you guys?

    I'm 5'9"...Is that close enough?? LOL. My goal is 202 (yes it's a high number but I'm big and always will be) so have about 46 more to lose. I'm happy with my current 15 pounds lost but still so far to go....sigh.

    My goal was 120 but I don't know if that's a little too low. I just really want to be skinny.

    I always thought 5' 8" was common (I'm 5' 8"). I've lost 112 so far with about 15 more to go. You're welcome to add me.

    I'm 5'8! I don't really have a goal since I'll always want to make it lower, I'm just striving towards eating healthier now and cutting out junk. :)

    I'm 5' 7. Is that close enough?

    My goal is 120. I have a small build, and feel best at that weight. I usually hit my goal a couple of times in the year, and then fluctuate the rest of the time. Logging helps the fluctuations to be smaller:happy:

    Feel free to add me. :bigsmile: :bigsmile:
