      I am 5'3 and I have approx. 40 lbs to loose. I have been been doing this for about 4 weeks and have lost 11 lbs. TOM was here for the first three weeks so, I'd say it's been going well.

          Im' 5'3 and so far have lost 65 lbs going from 215 to 150. Its gone well and has taken about 9 months (with the occasionly cheats). I was wearing a size 18/20 in jeans and now I can wear a size 12 (I gotta lot of junk in the trunk so i have always worn a bigger size than ppl who weigh the sameMy sis weighs the same and wears a size 10 go figure but I do like my booty) I exercise 6 days a week too, for an hour a day, so I am sure that helps Good Luck to you!

            Hi to all you fellow shorties!!! I am 30 and just 5'1''...at my highest I was about 160 (due to a medicine). Then it took two years and finally got down to about 140. Im 138 right now, but due to me being so short and small-framed I am still quite overweight for my doctor's liking, and you short girl know that alittle extra weight looks like alot more on us than on a taller person! I am only on Induction day 2 and going good so far. I set a goal for myself to lose 13lbs, but would really like to lose more. I am quite flabby and have a large amount of body fat (esp belly fat) that it would be awesome to lose (for health purposes) and because I just want to be fit again.. Thanks for posting us, I really feel like I can relate to women like yourself!!!!! Good luck on your journey!

                Im 5'2 and its bloody annoying =P
                It is abit harder I feel to be smaller framed and shorter because you can't exactly get away with being bad every so often.
                But in the long run, I guess its for the best
                Ready for change

                  That's true, every pound shows. But just think, when you get to goal you'll be all cute and adorable because you are little. Not such a bad thing.

                          I'm barely 5'3. I have lost 36 pounds and have 25 to go. Its def. started to come off slower after I reached my halfway mark but its still coming off! Slowly but surely. I like being shorter, though.

                            I am 5' 3 1/2" at last measure and I've lost weight. People who haven't seen me in a while tell me I look taller now.

                              I'm 5'3", or 5'2½", depending on who measures me! I also love being petite - and only wear heels because they maximize the legs.
