My measurements are:

Bust - 36
Ribcage - 33 1/2
Waist - 28
Fattest part of stomach - 34 (!!)
Hips 39
Arm - 11
Neck - 13

Apparently this makes my body fat % 24%. I'd like to get it down to around 21-22%

I didn't bother sucking in my stomach to measure it but to reduce that number is my main goal this month. I don't want to lose any from my bust, and my waist is OK. Hips and lower stomach can disappear though!

Looking good ladies!

@claire0412 if you want to try and flatten out your stomach then I recommend pilates and although (unfortunately) we can't spot reduce pilates helps even out the fat that is there so as you look trimmer :3 blogilates on tumblr is great

MY hips/spare tire and thighs shall be the death of me!
Bust-38.8
Waist_33
Spare tire-42.8
Hips-42.6
Thighs-27
Calfs-16
Arms-12

You ladies have and exercises that helped dwindle you down? Id love to hear em!

Mine are
Bust: 32
Waist: 26.5
Hips: 34.5
Thighs: 22 (ugh!)

HATE my thighs, it's definitely coming off there the slowest I've only lost two inches since I started measuring. By comparison, I've lost 4 off of my waist and 3 off of my hips.

EDIT: I re-measured this morning after a woosh and so I'm updating these

I've got to get myself a measuring tape!!

Start: 137+lbs
bust: 38
waist: 31
hips: 38

This morning: 127lbs
bust: 37
waist: 27.5
hips: 37

I'm an apple when heavy, an hourglass when slim, and perhaps a ruler when skinny? I don't know...

I swim, use a rowing machine, and do Filipino MMA (Muay Thai Kickboxing, western boxing, street fighting, knife techniques, and some more stuff with a big cardio warmup!)

I run/bike/swim 5-4 days a week and lift weights. Lifting weights builds muscle and speeds your metabolism. Don't be afraid of bulking up - just choose a weight that allows you to do 15-20 reps before failure. HTH

That's good advice!


I'm:
Bust - 34
Waist - 27
Hips - 37 3/4 (at the largest part... is that where I was supposed to measure?)
Arm - 10 1/4

My shape also changed as I lost weight. At 168, my measurements were something like 42/35/44.5; now I'm 36/25.5/38. My hips/butt won't shrink much in these last several pounds, because my wide-set "birthing" hips are an exception to my small frame, and I always have boobs. I anticipate that most of these last several pounds will come off my belly (24" waist 10 years ago, would like to have it back) and thighs.

I vividly remember the first time I noticed I was gaining weight at age 18. I was driving and had a can of soda with me. I was used to holding soda cans between my thighs. I put it there, and WOOP! It squeezed itself right back out. Put it there again, WOOP! So I think my thighs are first to come on, last to go...

If the first to come is the last to go, I'll be a twig with boobs when I'm finished.
They came when I was 9. Photos from the time show me with horrible posture-rounded, hunched shoulders.
Just measured my ribcage; it's 28.7 inches.
No wonder my 34DD are too loose around me...

Here are my measurements as of this morning:

Bust: 33(C)
Waist: 26
Hips: 33 - hopelessly banana-shaped, lol.
BMI: 18.88
Body fat: 18.2%
Lean body mass: Roughly 99 lbs., about 18 lbs. is considered 'fat'.

Goal is to get to 15% body fat or somewhere around 112 lbs., whichever comes first.

Run, run, run and then run some more. My thighs were always flabby, seriously. Since running they've become a lot tighter and more muscular. I have almost no visible cellulite either from all the running I've been doing which I hear helps with the condition.

breast-41
rib cage-31
natural waist-32
belly button waist-35
hips-42

I too am going for inches lost more then the number on the scale. The number on the scale NEEDS to move cause it sits at 158 pounds and I am 5"5. However the last 3 weeks at the gym going 4 days a week 1-2 hours a day, plus moderate exercise at home everyday. Time at the gym is also spent a couple days 2-3 on weights. The last 3 weeks I have lost 0 pounds but I have lost 2 inches in my rib cage, and 1 inch in my natural waist, Hoping the inches continue to say buh bye and they continue to work the way down my body!!! lol

** For every 3 lbs of muscle gained you burn an extra 120 calories a day!!!!!!**

My measurements:

Bust - 35
Waist - 26
Hips - 35
Ribcage -30
Thighs -20

Hm, I've never before measured myself yet. So I have no feeling for picturing measurements either. I skipped the bust part cus a. I dont care and b. I don't know where to measure :P

Waist:34
Hips: 40
Ribcage: 31
Thighs: 28 (yes, almost as fat as my ribcage! wow)
Arms: 11

I think I'm a pear, my upperbody is skinny quite fast, it's the bottom that gets big.
