    My understanding of waist measurement is that it's always the natural waist measurement, which is the smallest part of your waist. I'm 5'11 and my waist is 27.5 inches.

    Very similar here. I'm 5'6" (last two times I went to the dr they said 5'5.5" but I'm in denial that I've shrunk) with 30.375" at the waist.

    I'm 34.375" around my navel. A year ago today my waist was 34". I didn't take navel measurements back then.

    I'm 147 lbs.

    Well that's a wake up call for me. I've always admired your figure - I didn't realize it was so close to my new one. I still picture myself larger in my head.

    So the narrowest part is your belly button? If you bend to one side where does your waist bend or crease?

    If you are short-waisted it is possible that your natural waist and belly button are very close to the same spot. Or, they might not be close together but could have the same circumference measurement if you are built fairly straight up and down/ruler-ish.

    My guess is that once I lose the rest of the fat on my stomach and my skin shrinks a bit more, that my waist and stomach will be pretty close in size. Even while thin, I don't really have a defined waist.

    I just looked at your pictures. You are looking good! We are always harsher on ourselves than we are on others, at least I know that I am. Reading your comment kind of made my day so thank you :) Also, your daughter in the background of the one picture (I'm assuming she's your daughter) made me smile. I can rarely take a picture without my daughter photobombing me.

    I'm just about like this too - my natural waist is maaaaaaybe an inch above my navel, but the measurement is definitely the same despite having a defined hourglass type shape. I'm just shortish and very short waisted, one of those women who has to shorten the straps on everything and for whom hip-length tops are dresses.
