You are a tiny one, I picture you as a Pixi! I am 5 feet and 5 inches tall. I weighed 115lbs at my annual physical a couple weeks ago. I am 42 years old. I am in a healthy body mass for my height and smaller bone structure, I looked at the chart for this while in the doctor's office.

I'm 5"2' and weigh 114.

However, that was not always the case. I used to weigh 157 last year due to some meds I was taking, but lost it because of a few issues I had. I continued losing weight and am now holding at 114. I have a very small body frame due to being born prematurely, so I look very short and tiny for my age.
 
i am 5"8 1/2 I am weight 215, I am too much my weight...I think so my weight correct.
 
I'm 5'1 and my weight is 115.... I used to be 102 four years ago, gained 70 pounds while pregnant with my son and then lost 57 pounds.... All I need to do is lose five more pounds then I'm all good.

I'm 5'2 also and at the moment I am around 140 lbs (I am short too because I am a preemie too as well). I was 188 lbs last fall but thanks to the stupid recurring kidney infections I was having, I lost all the weight and now I got no curves. :( I am trying to figure out how to gain back all the weight I lost, because I think and I feel my body is meant to have curves even though I am short...the curves just happens to look good on me. But lately these days the food industry have been making all their damn foods so that everything is light or fat free or 10 calories, or even 0 calories. What happened to all the good old regular food that is not light or low fat or 10 calories or 0 calories that we had back in the 1980s? All of those food are gone! I don't want to have to eat at McDonald's everyday to gain back the weight I lost - their food are so gross. I cannot find a damn thing that is normal food that is also still healthy anymore. What about us people who do not wish to lose weight and who just want to eat normal food just because we enjoy food and just because we like the curves we have? I understand the need for some incredibly obese people to lose weight, but I do not wish to be a skinny little tiny thing, I like meat on my bones, and I am not one of those people that spends 3-5 hours on a treadmill per day, drink nothing but water and eat nothing but lettuce. That's what people are doing these days it seems, and it annoys me to no end. They are so obsessed with being as skinny as a stick. They are competing to see who can get the most skinniest. I am seeing clothing stores advertising "00" sizes jeans. I am size 11 at the moment (I was a size 18 before), so I try to imagine what a "00" would look like and well I think that you probably would have to be a stick to be that size. I see 16 years old girls that are nothing but bones. It's not healthy. Pretty soon all the hospitals with psych wards and the eating disorder treatment centers are going to be overcrowded with those people. It's sad, really. I don't understand people who think that people who are skinny as a stick are hot. Yuck. They look sick and not healthy at all. They look like they've been through a whole year or two of aggressive chemotherapy treatments.

I am also getting very tired and sick of people telling me "You lost weight! What happened?!" and those kind of comments. I know they either was concerned or they meant to compliment me but all it does is remind me of having been sick with kidney infections which was NOT fun. The concerned comments makes me feel like they think I have some kind of eating disorder issue, which I don't have. I'm tired of explaining repeatedly about the chronic kidney infections. I wish people would stop commenting on my body size every time they see me...they act like I magically shrunk! They need to shut up and talk about something else. It's annoying. When I was 188 lbs I did not mind the "are you pregnant/expecting?" comments I was getting because I wasn't feeling so negative about the weight and all it did was make me giggle and say, "nope, not yet". It's kinda fun to confuse them. But the current comments as of late are getting to me. I want my curves back.
 
Lucia,

I also hate it when people comment on your weight. I think it's rude except when someone compliments you for losing weight. Just today a neighbor of mine asked if I was losing weight and I said no because I don't think that I am. My weight tends to fluctuate. The last time I saw my GP, my weight was 114. Prior to that it was 109. Before that, it was 125. Go figure. :lol:

I also can't stand it when people comment on my body size. I can't count how many times someone exclaimed "You're so small!" or "You're so tiny!" They even comment on how small my hands and fingers are. It's annoying. :roll:

When I was growing up, the song "Short People" by Randy Newman used to be pretty popular. I HATED it because there was one boy in my elementary school who would sing the chorus of that song whenever he saw me and it always made me livid. :mad2:
 
Im a shorty too due to me being premature I guess. I am the smallest of out my friends, even smaller than my 10 year old cousin!
 
I'm a preemie but still grew up to be tall. I'm 5'8 and 155 lbs. I want to lose 20 lbs by July - wait and see!
