Jornal de Shake Those Pounds, 05 jun 21

I would love to be 5'10 instead of five four it would be amazing  

You must look amazing, don’t crouch down anymore. Tell the person taking the picture to step back or adjust the camera, that way everyone fits in the picture. Stop accommodating them, and block out their rude remarks. Remember not everyone has a flat stomach, it’s perfectly ok. Be yourself, your an amazing person 

there was a song that was written about short people something about nasty little hands and so on and so forth I wish I could remember the author I don't even remember if it was late 60s or 70s but it would make you chuckle 

Randy Newman had a song called "Short People" 

Chestnut &ride, my sister and I would sing that to my mom all the time! We’re both 5’10” and she’s 5’3”. It sounds mean now but it really was playing.  

yep it was Randy Newman and short people listening to it right now thank you 

Always happy to help 

Know that 5'2 size 4 people also compare themselves to others who are thinner or leaner. That's about my size right now and I feel like a hippo next to size 0 or size 00 women, especially if they have less body fat and more muscle than I do. Try to focus more on yourself and your progress because there is almost always someone with a better physique or whose physique you will prefer.  

You also have the advantage of being able to weigh more and be healthy, which means you can eat more calories than someone with 8 fewer inches at the same activity level. I would love that but I have to work with what I have which means keeping my activity high. 

You probably look amazing! Size 10 is great for 5’10. I’m 5’1, and sometimes I wish I was short but not too short, like 5’3 or 5’4. Oh well. Being short is fine, and so is being tall! 

I’m sure you look amazing! I’m 5’2” (and maybe shrinking...) but always envy folks taller including my sister. I always say, I’m coming back with legs in my next life. You are a perfect 10 ... embrace it! 

don't bring yourself down with what you don't have or what other people might have.. they might be jealous of you.. you've accomplished so much and that in itself is fantastic.. no worries.. strut your stuff 

5’ 10” size 10 is amazing! I am 5’ 8” and a size 8-10 and I look great got my height. Anytime your around small, vertically challenged people, you’re always gonna feel a bit “oversized”. I promise you, you are not! 

I agree with everyone else. You can't make everyone happy. Do it for you. Keep in mind that people will always have opinions, but you are in charge of your body, not them. 

5’10” size 10 is awesome. A great body size. Stop comparing to tiny petite people. They have their own short problems 

Don’t lean down in photos. Zero reason to. I am 5’2”. Yeah, most of us wish we were a bit taller at least 

You are doing so well! You may be family, but don’t have the same body type. She has to shop I. Petites and everything normal is long on her. You probably have had the opposite experience. She’s probably jealous of your long legs and ability to see in crowds. Be you and build the best body for you. 

So many comments - so many people really care about you and that is so great. So I am just most likely adding to what they say. I'm one of those short people and as I am aging I'm getting shorter. I was once 5'5-1/2 inches (notice I needed that .5 inch) but now I'm 5'3". I have always hated being so short and have envied taller girls / women. I always thought that men were drawn to the taller women. As I age and have gained weight I have found that 1 pound on me looks like 5 pounds and it is more difficult to lose even one pound. To be at a healthy weight / BMI I have to be at an almost impossible weight. When I was younger I was at the weight that is now my ideal weight. Back then, when I was at that weight (in my twenties and thirty's) my doctor thought I was too thin but now that's the weight I need to be to be healthy. Go figure.  

first. to our have to love what you have accomplished. I lost 30 lbs I still feel fat. but now I embrace how I look and feel. and don't care what others think. I just enjoy life. whatever it bring. love yourself 

You’ve done so well!! I’m 5’0” and I would love to be 5’10”...and a size 10 ... I’ve got a long way to go and you are an inspiration! Be proud.
