Short people don't take longer to lose weight. Height isn't related to metabolism...muscle is.
Do you know what your bf% is?
What is your diet like?

Im not sure of my bf% but my diet consists of lots of vegatables fruit and lean meats. For example
Breakfast-1 serving cereal and yogurt
Lunch- Salad with vinegar and light oil
Dinner-Chicken breast with vegatables and serving of bread
I usually snack of fruits and drink lots of water like 6 32oz bottles. I do measure out servings thats the thing. I guess i just have a extra slow metabolism. Can u help?
Thanks for responding
