    Here's my measurements. I took them on Feb. 9th.
    Hips ~ 49in
    Bust ~ 46
    Small Waist ~ 42
    Biggest Waist ~ 48.6
    Arm ~ 14.6

    Starting weight is 244lb.

    I have attempted this DVD in the past but never made it the full 30 days. I know you don't have to do it 30 days straight, but as soon as I take a day off it is soooo hard to get back at it. So, this time I have decided that I am doing it straight through with no off days. That is my goal. I am also hoping to lose lots of inches and pounds! I realize that a lot of people are only losing inches, but with as much weight as I have to lose and the calorie deficit I am doing, I should also lose lbs (at least I hope!)

    I am doing D3L1 today.

    Trying to move past the 160's. I'm at 167.2 now. But I sometimes seem to bump up to 169. My measurements are: B36.75 W32.75 H46

    I definitely am the type that can't be left to my own devices. I'm more effective when motivated by the energy of others. Soooo looking forward to this. I can see a huge change just over the hill. :)

    I have yet to log measurements on MFP because i was not clear exactly where to take the measurements from. I'm thinking of taking my waist just below my ribs and my hips at the top of my hip bones. Am I right in thinking this way or no?

    I would say take whatever measurements you want to track. Just be sure and measure in the same place when you retake them to see your progress.

    Beginning weight 130
    Height 5'5
    Chest 36
    Waist 31.25
    Hips 34.5

    My goal when I started on MFP was to lose weight. However, reading countless posts and doing research I have decided I don't really care if I lose weight or not, 130 is in a healthy weight range for me, I just want to tone it all up.

    I am going to report measurements every week.

    Week 1 won't be exactly right as I don't have a tape measure so did it with ribbon and then measured with a ruler so its probably not accurate.

    Will see what difference there is after 1 full week (will measure on Sunday evening).

    I am also taking photos, which I will post at the end!
