Talking Bust/Waist/Hip measurements?

I notice that the majority of 3FT members only post their progress on the scales but seeing as my goal is more to do with increasing muscle mass and decreasing my body fat percentage I'm curious to see how you guys size up when confronted with a tape measure :P

The tape and lean muscle mass are much kinder to me than the scale. I, like you, use the measurements as my guide. Here's my current stats:

Weight - 161
Hips - 39
Waist - 33
Body Fat - 33%
Lean Mass - 30%

I'm more interested in more muscle and less fat, than the scale number. I consider myself something of an amateur athlete, and only cut weight to go faster!

See my signature! My goal is to get my hourglass figure back, but not if it takes me under 115 lbs. I started off at 37-29-39, right now I'm 36-28-38.5...stupid saddlebags...my goal is 36-27(or 26, if I'm lucky)-36.

I take a crazy amount of measurements...ribcage [32] (under my boobs), neck [12], arms [11.5], upper hips [35.5](spare tire) waist at belly button[32], thigh[22], calf[13.5...only an inch from my beginning upper arm measurement, yuck!] and forearm [9]. I figured I was losing weight but my chest/waist/hips weren't budging, so where the heck was it coming from? My spare tire and my upper arms, apparently...can't complain!

Yes I have way too much fun measuring myself

Right now I'm at 40/35/39 (B/W/H). Other measurements are: arm--12.5, thigh--20.5, ribcage--35.

Measurements are fun because that's where we can really see the differences in body shapes. I find it really interesting to see where my measurements are compared to someone at a similar weight (or differences in weight if our measurements are similar)... I just find it really cool that everyones' bodies are so different!

Just realized this is the featherweights section! I'm hardly a featherweight, but hopefully you all don't mind me chiming in

Thanks guys for fulfilling my curiousity :P

@mortonpixie I'm pretty much in the same boat as you as I'm a dancer/runner and I'm really trying to build up on my lean muscle mass

@Ariruns Haha, feel free to chime in whenever

I weigh 130 pounds and my measurements are:
Bust: 38"
Waist: 26"
Hips:37"

So most of my weight goes on my chest which I'm thankful for but unfortunately its also the first place weight seems to come off :/

Like a lot of you gals, I'm focusing on fat loss rather than just weight loss. I didn't start out with much muscle mass, so I definitely didn't want to lose any if I could help it!

weighing around 127-128 pounds lately
Current measurements:
waist: 25.5
hips around butt: 38
hips at fullest point above butt: 36.5
bust: 36.5 (though I think I may have shrunk slightly since I quit the Pill recently, maybe 36)
ribcage: 28
thighs: 22 (took me the last three months to whittle them down from 23!)

This is almost exactly me! I measured last week and I am 34-29-39. I am between an 8 and 10 on the bottom but small on top. Like junior's small, not woman's small. It's so bizarre and I feel so disportionate sometimes. Especially when I am lying down. Does anyone else feel like their thighs spill out the sides when laying flat on their back but when you stand up (or lift your hips up) it goes away? LOL I just gotta say -- THANK GOD I do not have a serious boyfriend! It's not going to be about the number of dates I go on before we decide to be intimate. It'll be about these 10-11 pounds coming off first!
