    I started there, hoping to get to 134... That's the magic number in my head. About 10 more pounds to go!

    And I'm so glad I posted this! Looks like there are a lot in the same boat - lets be each others motivation :)


    And for those that are losing - what's your secret? I like to run/ weight train - it's finding the time that is the hardest. Lately I've only been able to run a couple of times a week - Ideally I'd like it to be between 4-5x/week

    Time is one of the hardest things for me as well. I am trying to be better about portion control. I am only 5'2, so eating too much can pack it on quickly.

    My new pic has my head cut off, anyone know how to fix that?

    Have a great weekend!

    Hi!
    I'm 5'7, started at 172, right now hovering around 150-152 and would like to tone up, perhaps hit 140? Now my goals are about strength. I'd like to be a size 6; right now I'm at an 8 (with a few 10s thrown in there for fat days!).
    Add me if you'd like!

    I started out at 150 and I just broke through 130 and I am now sitting at 129. I want to lose at least another 14 lbs. I am 5 foot even :)

    Hello,

    I am right at 150 (again), heading for 125 this time. There are two support groups that I know of for shorties. There are probably more than that, but I just know of two. I believe one is a group and the other is a forum. If you look under motivation you should be able to find them.

    The forum that I am part of is at
    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/512328-fit-and-fun-sized-those-under-5-4-for-march-2012

    Welcome to MFP. It is a great site and you will find motivation in the challenges here and support and motivation in the people.
