  • WOO HOO!!!! Bye to those inches, and now they are to never come back!!

    I have to figure out where I put that stupid measuring tape.

    Then maybe I'll re-post mine....
  • girls. sorry I haven't been back in here in awhile. Just read all of your posts. Ellis, you are too funny....you're measuring your face???? all the way around your head? You crack me up girlfriend.

    I did get remeasured at the gym but they keep the stats there. I'll copy them when I'm there and post them here.

    Ruth...I feel that we are spiritual sisters. I cram mine into a 42DD also. I can't remember but I'd bet the circumference of that area is more than 42...
    I promise not to get started on my boobs here...one thread is enough.
    I really like the ribbon idea.

    I'll be baaaaaccck. Soozie
  • How does having big breasts make you spiritual sisters? That's lovely. Just lovely.
    Soozie, if you could see the fat on my face you'd know why I measured it. I wake up every morning and look in the mirror and think, "Who the **** is THAT?!"

    I'm not measuring again until next week. These are troubled times.
  • Heh
    You brave brave souls.

    I will say this: I was in a size 44DD bra for the last 5 years, just about. Saturday @ Kohl's I tried on a 42D & it fit like a dream--in fact, I'm wearing it right now!

    As for the rest of me, uh, yeah. Maybe someday, not today.
  • Here we go...
    Well, despite the fact that I am the ONLY one doing this... (where is ELLIS?), here are my new measurements after two weeks:

    Weight: 191 (today) down 7 pounds total
    Neck: 14" same
    Shoulders: 45" down 1", total down 2"
    Biceps: 15" same
    Forearms: 11" same
    Chest: 36" down 1/2", total down 2"
    Bust (with bra): 43" down 1", total down 3"
    Waist: 35 1/2", down 1/2", total down 2"
    Hips: 47", down 1/2", total down 1 1/2"
    Thighs: 28", down 1/2", total down 1"
    Calves: 16" same
    Largest Circumference: 52", same, total down 2"

    I am happy to see that these numbers continue to go down! Any other brave souls out there?
  • You're the only one doing it because you're the only one doing WELL! You're doing GREAT, hon!
    I'll measure next Monday, Sojo. Even though I haven't lost weight, I THINK I'm making some body changes.
  • Inches Away!
