    My waist is 32 in. I'm 6'4 tall, so it can't go any lower for me.

    Waist is measured at the narrowest part. Level with your navel is considered abdomen.

    30.5"

    Which makes me sad because I'm 34-30.5-37.5 and I'm almost a banana.

    Goal? I don't know, less.

    Mine's 39 currently but was 44 six months ago so I'm happy. I have no earthly clue what it was at my heaviest (96 lb ago)...don't even wanna know.

    Obviously my ideal/goal will be smaller! I'm thinking 34 maybe? I have no idea.

    23 and proud! It comes with being short and asian.

    Actually waist measurement doesn't matter much at all to me, it mostly has to do with frame after a certain point anyway.

    I was 36 inches at the navel at my biggest now 31-32 I have in my head that I could get that down to 26-28 with some serious dedication to lowering BF% as I have a good old spare tire going on above the muscle and more jiggle then jelly. My actual waist (narrowest point) is 29 inches and it was 34 so I am getting there.

    I thought to measure your waistline you measure the narrowest point? That's how seamstresses have done it to me.

    Anyways I'm a 27....or so I thought. If I measure at belly button level I'm like a 31inches

    I'm 122 at 5'2

    My waist is not at my navel.... because I am not a guy.... but I am at 36.5 at that point.... and my waist measures 30.

    It seems so lofty.....but I would love a 26 inch waist..... I've been close at 27 in late 2011...and that is why it seems lofty.... I don't know that I can go smaller than that... my rib cage and hips challenge that dream....

    I'm a a runner and I've added CrossFit and yoga to get my waistline to a better place!

    I can't really lose anything around my waist, I hold all my weight in my butt & thighs, even with only 10 lbs lost, my rib cage is already showing while my hips are barely budging.

    Hah! Did my PM inspire you? Right now it's 38.5. 2 years ago, it was 24. I'd be delighted to split the difference at 30-32.

    I did it to inspire us :wink:

    Waist is measured at the narrowest part. Level with your navel is considered abdomen.

    What I wrote was actually from a website on how to measure your waist. :ohwell:
