Thank you! And yes, except your waist is much smaller than mine! I totally identified with your post though when you said that you carried a lot of your weight in your legs - I do too, and I'm still wondering when my thighs are going to start shrinking more noticeably, lol.

I was still angry with my thighs last time- when I reached 160- but not nearly as angry as I am now :p

LOL. They were the first place I gained weight when I began putting it on way back in high school, and so I'm sure it will be the last place it comes off. I'm guessing I'll hate them forever. :cry:

Thanks for starting this post. I was just wondering yesterday how many inches people have lost in their journey.

Ok here is mine from the start of making a serious commitment to living healthy but not from my heaviest (260 sometime before Dec 2010).

April 07, 2011

I have the classic PCOS figure with my waist bigger then my hips.

I didn't measure until I had lost about 15 pounds, but here's what my record says:

Approx. 225 lbs
Bust: 46
Waist: 40
Hip: 52
Thigh: 32

Last August - Approx. 200 lbs.
Bust: 41.5
Waist: 33.5
Hip: 46
Thigh: 29.5

Now - 159ish lbs.
Bust: 37
Waist: 27.5
Hip: 40
Thigh: 25.5

I feel like my top half is quite compact now, but my hips are still pretty big and my thighs are ENORMOUS!

Well, since I'm so new, I only have my starting measurements xD

5'4"
272 lbs.
Chest: 50.5" [40H/I]
Waist: 41.5"
Hips: 53.5"
US Size 22/3X

I have sooo much work to do. I can't wait for my hips to measure under 50 inches.

5'3'', 135 lbs.
Bust - 36''
Waist - 30''
Hips - 38''
Upper arms - 10''
Thigh - 22

I am rather new to the measuring myself thing. I have no feeling for what's small and what isn't.

Starting weight 156.5
Current weight: 142.2

My current measurements are:

Thigh: 26 inch
Hips: 38.5 inch
Belly above navel: 32 inch
Belly below navel: 34 inch
Ribcage: 31,5 inch
Calf: 16 inch

I've lost 14lbs, but almost all of it has gone from my upper body. I really start noticing it there slowly but surely.

After my first month anniversary, I measured. I'm down 22lbs and have lost 17 inches.
The first set of numbers is at 260, the second at 240! All of the one sided measurements are on the right side, which is bigger than my left.

nat waist 38.5 36.5

above knee 22 21.5
calf 19.5 18.75

I am 5' 0.6"
