    I haven't seen any. I have to wear heels to work or else no one can see me over the cubicle walls and I get run over by someone turning the corner. I'm in.
  • I'm in.. short and round.. right here!!

    My measurements exactly. Even though I now weigh 118, i feel fat. If I eat something I shouldn't I feel like I have gained all of my weight back. A pound on my body shows. I want to be in this group. How bout the petite petunias?

    In answer to the height question. I think in the clothing world, "petites" are 5' 4" and under??? or is it 5'3"?--not sure. If anyone is not sure about Fit and Fun Sized, how 'bout--"Snack Sized?"":laugh: :laugh:

    i hear you! Tall people dont understand how much 5 lbs can make a difference on our bodies! My SIL is 6 ft even and when she was pregnant she gained like 40 lbs and u couldnt tell at ALL! Me just gaining 10 lbs i look like a completely different person!

    So do u guys want to do weigh ins each week?Challenges?Maybe a biggest loser type thing, like each week who ever loses the most weight can make up the challenge for the next week?Anyone have any suggestions?

    I'm in...so funny me and songbyrd are the exact same height (I always just round it up to an even 5 feet).
  • I'm in!!! 5'3" 140lbs and really wanting to get down to 125. I like the idea of whoever loses the most making up the challenge for the next week! Yay! Fit & Fun-sized! I like it =)

    Yay, I'm glad you guys liked my name! :happy:

    I also round up to 5'0 LOL!! :blushing:

    I am 131.6 right now. I would like to get to 118...at that point I should be sub-20% body fat. My short-term goal is 127 by New Year's. I have dropped 6 lbs since October and it made a HUGE difference. It's a double-edged sword-- it makes a big difference either way!
  • I like the idea of the winner making up the challenges also!
