Jessiebear had a good question, how often should we check in?

Also, how do you all measure your bust? With or without a bra? I do it without and measure across the nipples..but wasn't sure what the rest of us were doing.

I personally did it while wearing a bra (not a sports bra because that pushes you in.. and not a padded bra because that will make you bigger.. just a soft cup comfortable bra) and measured the fullest part of my boobs. I don't know if thats *proper* but it makes sense to me.

I have been measuring every Monday when I weigh in just to see what happens each week & with that I am never disappointed. The scale is not always my friend, but the tape measure & I are bff's!

Bust: 41
Waste: 33.5
Belly button: 37.5
Hips: 44.5
Thighs: 26.5

I did mine over the bra/ boobs.

It's amazing to look at the different measurements.... I swear my bones are made out of bricks! How in the world can I still be 274? I guess I shall never know.

Oooh, I'm in... I haven't measured myself in months, but I promise I'll remember to do it tonight and I'll check in then!

Thighs be gone, we're like... the same size, lol. ...'cept you have bigger boobs... :( :lol:

Thighs Be Gone 12-02-2008 10:16 AM

Jelbb..if your boobs are any smaller than mine than you have none at all! :) My boobs are all but GONE! My 38 comes from the inches AROUND not in FRONT!

Update: You got me to thinking so I just went and measured again. My boobs are down 1/2 an inch. :( OMG. What am I going to do? I updated my previous post with correct measurements and added waist too. If I missed anything, please someone let me know.

I go with a tailors measuring chart, google one and you'll know where to measure yourself. I measured with a bra on.

We should check in every Monday, since the challenge was started on a monday...keep it simple.

jahjah1223 12-02-2008 06:07 PM

Every week? I'm nervous. I normally do my once a month so I don't get all crazy about it.... but I could do it every Monday. :?:

lol I think it's a good idea. Sorry, I freaked out just for a second.

DRose 12-02-2008 06:15 PM

I'm gonna have to skip the first week check because I won't be back home for two weeks, I'll definitely measure then though.

ghost 12-02-2008 06:19 PM

We can go wtih every other week if people prefer that. I guess with measurments that would be better, there might not be a measureable difference from one week to the next...
