At PrinkPrincess, congrats on the 3 healthy pounds. At 5'2" I know that 125 pounds on me looks heavy, where as someone 5'10" looks really skinny. Keep up the great work.0

Hi Everyone,
I am 5'2 and at the present time i weigh 140. At my highest i was 220. My lowset was 119 in 2009 with Weight Watchers. I made Lifetime but i am tired of all the back and forth with the new programs and points so i have decided to come back to MFP.
It seems since my 46th birthday last month the weight just will not come off as easy as it use too. I think i might be in the beginning stages of menapause anyway i have cut my carbs down to about 140 . The only starchy carbs i eat are my oats for breakfast the rest are veggies and fruit.
I keep my calories under 1500 a day. I run 3-4 mile 6 days a week and lift weights 4-5 days. I feel my best at about 125.
Thanks for this thread..it is nice to see ladies i can relate too0 -
ugh i feel like the biggest and shortest. i'm 5 feet and i'm about 181. and i want to be about 105. my highest was 210.
I am 5' -5.1" at most ..And my starting weight was 203..(SMH) Insane..I know I dont eat enough that's why I am here. I eat like 600-1000 calories a day ..(no eating disorders) thats just my appetite..paired with low carb no sugar style of eating...I have been breaking 1000-1100 lately hoping to get 1200 as a rule daily before exercise ...and then to train my brain to eat some of those back ... My goal is 150 for now ..and I am thinking 135ish over all ...I am a dd and that doesn't change no matter what my weight is ...even when I was breast feeding etc it stayed the same ...so I dont see me getting into the 120's ...0 -
Glad to have seen this thread! I have been trying to lose weight for about 2 years, I gain or maintain. I am always told to eat more, you will lose weight lol. Dont go below a certain cal amount, you will starve. Well, after reading that some of you are eating 1400 I am going to try that. It is so frustrating to lose weight, and I have quite a bit to lose for a shorty lol. I am 5'1/2" and weight 213. That is not my heaviest weight, trying very hard to not gain anymore weight while trying to figure out how to lose it. I always end up quitting after a month or so of seeing no changes, so hopefully this time, it will work. Thanks!0

I am! I'm hoping to get to 95, though. it's definitely healthiest for me. i'm at 107 now.0

I'm 26, 5'1 and 2 kids
Fat my whole life.
Went from 200.5 to 185 and then got down to 146.
I currently weigh 149 lbs and trying to get to 132 lbs, which is considered healthy :-)
I run and eat clean.
200 lbs These pants were size 16
146 lbs
149 lbs March 20120 -
I'm 5 2 exactly. I'm currently 111.4 and don't really feel the need to get any lower than what I am. I'm currently focused on trying to create lean muscle and definition instead of actively losing weight. I'm set to eat 1400 cals a day but usually burn at least 400 plus during my workouts so I try to eat those back (or most of them). Otherwise I'm starved and evil!0

Still shooting for a size 6, I'm in a size 10 now and 5' 2" I want to feel comfortable in my own skin and I surely don't at this size0
-
I'm a tiny 5"2.. I try to eat around 1200 and i want to lose about 10 more pounds to weigh 100 pounds. I know it sounds very low but that's my choice I eliminated all types of fizzy drinks, mayo and try to eat chocolate and ice creams only on the weekend and in small portions ...add me if u like0
-
i'm kind of in the same boat, 5'2" and 125-130 lbs but trying to cut down to 110 lbs. i've set my net calories on mfp to 1200 but i usually get in around 800-1000. i'm not sure what i'm doing "wrong" exactly because i exercise fairly frequently and with high intensity (i run varsity track, so i practice 4 times a week with condition post-practice and bikram yoga once a week). any suggestions?0
-
I am 5'1. My goal weight is 118. Once I began participating in the Whole30 program, I noticed the weight start to fall off. Eliminating sugar and dairy has really helped. I found this works well with exercise. My calorie intake is 1200 calories but I exercise at least 90 minutes a day.0
-
I'm trying to work out what a goal weight should be for me. I am a bit of a pear shape and currently 159lbs and 5'2". I haven't been less than 150 lbs for 20 years. It will be completely new for me. New skin. My next goal is 140. I'm struggling now. I'm at the gym twice a week and try to do as much walking as possible in between. Anyway, just wanted to say hello and thank you for all the different views for me to consider. Regards, Lu0

I'm 5'1'', and I eat 1200 calories a day. I just started this yesterday, so wish me luck! I'm not positive what my goal is yet. I want something that is easier to maintain, so it will be the higher end of my suggested range. Plus DH likes my curves. What does eating clean mean?0
-
I'm 5'2, 120 pounds & MFP sets me at 1600 on non-workout days & about 2000 cals on workout days. I do calorie cycling so I have days that I'm low & days that I'm high. Right now my main focus is on bulk/cut cycle. Wanna lose more body fat but keeping the muscle
EDIT: I have a medium frame & is on the muscular side which is why I already look thin at this weight. I can't go below 118 pounds0 -
I am 5'1" and I currently weigh 123 and stuck!! My goal weight is 118..I was set at 1200 and I just upped it to 1300 to help lose these last stubborn pounds. I am Italian so we love our CARBS but I try to stay away from most haha...I LOVE all foods! I eat everything because I found out the more you cut certain foods out of your diet, the more you will crave them and binge eat them. So I have a little piece of chocolate daily And ice cream and popsicles throughout the week! I just do sugar-free and small portions!!0

I am 5'1" and 64 years old. I have a sedentary job so my calories (for 1/2 lb per week) are 1260. I usually swim every day but found that it works better for me if I do not count in my exercise. I have been losing about 3 pounds a month and I am very happy with that! I had cut down on my calories more but I was hungry and felt like I was on a diet so I moved them back up. Part of me wants to get the weight off quick but I know it is healthier and safer to lose it slowly. It took 20 years to slowly gain the weight so....... I love MFP, it is the only thing that has ever worked for me and I love reading the inspirational stories. I am only 6 pounds away from my goal but I plan on staying on MFP to maintain my weight. Good luck to all of you.0

I am 5'2 and currently weight 199.4 lbs, yikes it is very scary to see that in writing When I started MFP a week ago I was 205 and I am consuming 1300 calories and working out every day (1800 calories with my exercise calories). I am completely embarrassed and humiliated that I look like this. I haven't told a single person I know that I am doing MFP, seems like when I tell people what I am trying to do, I put too much stress on myself to lose lots of weight because people are always watching me and I fail SO BIG. So trying something new here and so far so good. I really enjoy the community posts, they are extremely helpful and everyone is so pleasant, it's nice.
yeah Im right up there too, it is a hard pill to swallow being 209lbs *as of now started out 214!!! eeeek!!! Anyway, whenever I think " this exercise hurts!!" and want to wuss out at the gym I say no being 209 hurts!!! keep going!! LOL!!
anyway, Im 5'2
SW: 214
CW: 209
GW: 145 ( Im pretty muscular due to martial arts training in the past and always have had bigger calves and thicker muscular arms and Im okay with that )
I feel that 145 looked/felt great on me so that is what Im going for now, perhaps I will pick a new goal when I get there only time will tell! Right now I would just be THRILLED to get under 180lbs again! * havent seen that number in ten years, so that is a start!
I am nursing still so I get about: 1870 calories a day and usually after a heavy lifting/ cardio workout I earn 2100 or so but usually am 300 or 400 under my goal, its just sooooo much to eat! uuuggghhh LOL
about clean eating, the thing I am weaning myself off of is sugar. I only have a lil in my morning coffee, and drink a diet soda on occasion * use to get those huuuge mc donald dr peppers for a buck!! at LEAST two times a week! eeewwweeee... diabetes runs in my fam so I figure it best to cut it out just in case. even tho I been tested already and was neg. better to be safe than sorry!0 -
I am 5'1" I started at 201 and am now down to 179.8 I would like to get down to somewhere between 115 and 1250

I'm 5'3.5-5'4 and my goal is 105.0

5'2 1/2" and I've been maintaining 135 lbs for a couple months now consuming 1800-2200 cal a day (YES U READ CORRECTLY, read my diary lol). However, I will soon start carb cycling and cutting for vacation in August so I'm dropping down to 1500-1800 cal/day. I perform regular HIIT cardio (sprint/rest) and weight train 4-5 days/week. Weekends are off or light workouts OUTSIDE of the gym
I don't have a goal weight, I have a goal size, body wise. That's what really counts.

I'm 5' 1.75", started at 164, now I'm about 121, which I have been maintaining for a few months. I don't really have a goal weight in mind at the moment; instead I'm thinking more about body composition. I'd like to burn some last lingering belly fat and add some muscle mass. I'm not going to totally eliminate cardio, since I enjoy several activities (Leslie Sansone walk at home, step aerobics, outdoor walking, and bike rides), but I'm going to add more strength training. Just have to work on the diet part and what / how much to eat to obtain the results I want.0

I'm 5'1" and I'm currently floating between 113-116lbs. It's skinny fat though, and I'm an athlete (cheerleading and track) so I'm working to turn it into muscle. With that being said I might not exactly drop pounds, but I will drop inches. Hopefully though I can get into the 105-110lbs range.
I take in about 1200 calories a day, it's hard for me to up them but I've been trying to do that.
As for clean eating, if it's got ingredients that you can't pronounce or don't know what they are - it's not all that clean. Eat close to the earth and less processed food.0 -
Hey I am 5'2" as well.
Heaviest was 169, currently I am back and forth between 135 and 137. My goal weight is 125. It used it be 135 but I am around that now and still have a bunch of fat to lose and am still unhappy with the way I look.
I usually eat around 1,400 - 1,800 depending on my workout for the day. I try and eat between my BMR and TDEE so that's like 1,400 - 1,600 but if I have a good workout I let myself eat a lil more.0 -
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
*raises hand* 5'1" here. My starting weight was 276, and my current weight is 192. My goal is around 150, but I will see how that feels if/when I get there. I have my calories set right now to 1360 daily, but I tend to try and zigzag them a little day to day, mostly staying under my weekly limit. This seems to work best for me, although I may try upping my calories a little with EMTWL and see how that works out.
I pretty much don't eat fried foods at ALL. Not even because they are bad necessarily, I know they can be fine in moderation, but just because I honestly no longer enjoy them. I also try to eat as few processed foods as possible. I also stopped drinking soda around 7 years ago, and don't miss it at ALL. I pretty much only drink water, tea, and coffee, and very occasionally some almond or coconut milk (or an almond/coconut milk blend that I am currently in LOVE with lol).0 -
I'm 5'2 and my goal weight is 120 but I'm noticing a good amount of you wanting your goal weights to be like 100-115. seems so small to me. I'm thinking, am I supposed to be around that size as well? I couldn't tell you if I've ever in my adult/teen life been that size. I have a small frame. I don't have big hips,booty or legs. So the smaller I get the smaller everything else on me will get smaller. *shrugs* different strokes for different folks I guess0

I'm 5'1...and currently at 150...As someone else said, I am trying to take it day by day and make sure I make it a lifestyle change. I'd really like to be around 120-130. I'm a munchkin, but have kind of a muscular build from swimming and such.0
