Hi there! I'm just getting into the cosplay scene with my Shadow Trooper armor to attend Star Wars celebration and other cons. My trainer has me on higher carb diet currently but I've been really successful with Keri in the past. I'd like to be fitnesspal friends :smiley:

HI LADIES! I ran into some health issues since I started this thread over a year ago but I am BACK and READY and I will be checking this thread at least daily to keep it going and support some fellow short girls. :smiley: Post away!

THIS. YES.

I worked on Blizz titles and God of War before that. :)

This. I couldn't agree with this enough. For the record, I'm a lady who loves her video games, I worked for a video game developer for years and as such I've seen people who balance their game hobby and real life fantastically (I'm in this camp) and I've seen friends/coworkers who destroy their marriages and relationships…

Welcome AprilMae! 150 sounds like a great first goal. I tend to make my goals too far reaching and get discouraged. I suppose its all about the baby steps.

MTpkok, I'm TOTALLY hopping back on! Last night I made it under my calorie goal since ruthlessly logging on MFP, so that's actually a HUGE accomplishment for me considering I have little to no self control with food. Usually. Thanks ladies!

Its not that I don't have Whey, its that I can't have whey. I'm very dairy intolerant and even though the lactose in whey is comparatively low, it still makes me really sick. It hasn't been for lack of trying. No need to get snotty.

A common theme I've noticed with us short ladies is that we seem to carry our weight straight on the belly and hips right away. Something that is a big problem when you don't have a long torso at all! I love looking at before/afters and progress pictures from others. It keeps me motivated, but beyond that, I am always…

I may have to look into Lane Bryant... I used to get clothes from Torrid when I was heavier, but the clothing is made horrifically cheap, terribly overpriced and a little too juvenille for my tastes.

That is actually a pretty good idea! I didn't think of that. I guess being in the thrift shop they'dve already been washed, too.

Size 0?? Wow, I would love to be that small. I'm not familiar with Maurices though. Is that a chain? I'm in Texas.

Anything under 5'5" is considered short. WelshLady, I too have the short waist problem. It makes it hard to find clothes!

Hey, that's still in the 130's!!! Haha. Congratulations!!! That is really something to be incredibly proud of. Thats a force of willpower and hard work.

Hello Slinky! I started out almost to the pound your weight, dropped to 118... now I'm back up to 156. *Sigh* Its been 2 years of trying to recover all the work I did. I think 130 sounds like a really good goal. Are you doing anything specific?

Christ!! I can't believe how YOUNG you look now!!
