  • Measurement always work very well for me. In fact, I found this site because I measured myself instead of just weighing myself. In just a few months, I gained 4 inches in my hips, 3 in my waist, I think 3 around my body under my armpits, 2 under my bust!!!!!!!! In just a matter of 12 weeks or less. Sigh.... I hid my scale from myself today. I am not planning on weighing again until next week but I will measure later tonight to have accurate recorded numbers. I'll post my numbers later. Good luck to you!!

    Hello, I am in the Air Force so my wasit measurement is more important than weight for my fitness test. I would love to track them weekly with you. I have been running for 30 minutes M-F averaging 2.6 miles a run. I am also doing a full body weight lifting routine MWF. Despite all of this I am not losing any weight, in fact I have gained a pound! I know that it is probably muscle... but it sure is annoying.

    5'9" 202lbs
    Chest 41"
    Waist 34.5"
    Hips 46.25"
    Thigh 27

    My measurements are my motivation. I measure at the belly button (umbilicus) rather than my waist so that I have a better standard of comparison.

    I started in October at 5'4 & almost 180, Bust= 40, umbilicus=37, hips=44.5.
    As of Monday I was 158, bust=36.5, umbilicus=30.5, hips=41.5.
    Goal is 135, bust=33, umbilicus=24, hips=36
  • That is such awesome progess ariannedavis!!
  • I am in, but I don't have time to measure right now...later today or tomorrow I am totally in!!
