Weight Loss Solution

So while reviewing my weight loss goals for 2008, I realized that I really just need to grow 3-4 inches. I'm 5'3, if I was 5'7/5'8, I'd be smokin' hot and it would be easier to find pants that fit right.

I'm tired of putting "Lose weight" on my resolutions list every year. Instead, I will amend my outline to include "Grow 4 inches" for 2008 and I'll break this vicious cycle.

Edited to add: How funny is it that I did the math wrong? This is SO ME. I freaking hate math and it hates me too. I guess I need to grow 4-5 inches to get the results I was looking for. That doesn't seem as do-able. Damn.

Fab idea. Let me know how to do it too. 5'2" is not fun and I hate spending $$ to have shit hemmed.

I'm 5'2" so I think to fit my weight, I'd have to be at least 9' tall....Maybe I should just get stilts???

I'm 5'7", and it's totally overrated. The ideal height is actually 5'9". I wonder if I can clear another two inches with regular visits to my chiropractor... Thanks for the awesome idea, Ashley!

I don't think that would work for me. I'm 5'4" and my legs are the length of someone 5'6" or 5'7", and I have no body. Of course, my legs are where all of my fat is. I doubt if I could grow another couple of inches that it would affect my fat thighs at all.

Yeah-I highly recommend growing. You know what-yoga once a week will get you an inch better. I think if i stood up taller at least all the bulge would be re-distributed. Mr. QM and I are training to run a half marathon this year. Yes- I realize this makes me crazy.

I like the way you think but at least you've got me by an inch. I'm doing the Wii workout which I made up by myself. You are welcome to join me at that, just let me know.

we should have a group, Women United Against Being Five-Two, or WUABFT.

Let's see... I'm close to 5'8" now. How tall would I have to be for that to work for me? 6'2"? I'd be an Amazon! Still, I like your way of thinkin'!
