    5'4" 22 years old.
    I have NEVER posted pictures on here before and am embarrassed that I even let myself get to 200 lbs! But I have been slowly losing weight for the past 2 years with better portion control (although frequent binges still that I need to control), more exercising including running, occasional swimming, and Jillian Michaels currently. I love looking at everyone's pictures on here so much that I could browse for hours. The top pictures are at about 215 and the bottom ones are around 150-155ish. I'm still hoping to lose 20 more to sit comfortable around 135.

    Grateful for this post as it is inspiring as a 5'4" girl.
    SW 233; CW; 221; GW 120 - I just started and reading everyone's success who originated from a similar place is encouraging. Thank you - let's help each other get there.

    Feel free to add me too! I'm currently struggling with figuring out the right balance of calories / protein-carb-fat ratios / how much to workout and would love any advice so I hit my goal before my 40th birthday (in January!)

    I'm 5'5". Started at 230. Currently 149. Healthy bmi finally! I'm aiming for 140-145, but more for clothes size than weight.

    SW: 198
    CW: 146
    GW: 140

    Joined MFP in Dec 2011. Achieved thru 1200 healthy calories per day, cycling and Jillian Michael workouts 5 to 6x per week. I have a birth defect that affects the circulation and mobility in my right leg so I've never been an active person before. Many surgeries in the past so I had to modify workouts quite a bit not to further injure my leg, but I'm amazed at what I've been able to accomplish.

    5'4" and starting at over 200lbs. All of these success stories make me think I might could do it, too!

    I'm not a success yet, but I'm 225 and 5'2. My goal weight is 130, but I'd be extremely happy to even get back down to 160.
