    Yeah I definately agree it's amazing to see the difference. Clearly body shape has more to do with muscle mass, body fat and I suppose no matter how much a person tones up or loses weight, that person will always have the same body type within reason.
    The number on the scale only goes so far.
    Congrats to everyone who has lost weight, and good luck to those still in the process of losing! :flowerforyou:

    i am 5'5" 150lbs ( don't plan to go much lower with my weight, because i think i would look sickly)
    i am large framed and luckily one of the 8% of women that have an hourglass figure.

    my measurements are:
    39
    28 (i could easily have a 26 waist, but i have a smidge of loose skin from my 100+ weight loss)
    39

    my waist to hip ratio is .7 (the most desirable for men, an interesting fact from wikipedia)

    What were your measurements before your 100 lb weight loss?

    I'm fairly big boned and I had my measurements taken and if I weigh below 137 EVER I would apparently die because that's the mass of my bones + vital organs, skin, etc. haha. Goal weight is to be 160 but I am currently 209.

    I can't believe some of you are so light at our same height! But everyone's body is different. :)

    I am female, 5'6" & 140lbs

    36 - bust
    30 - waist
    37 - hips

    As you can see, I don't have an hour glass figure like you guys. My waist isn't small. I'm more of a "straight" or "apple body type."

    I'm more built like this too (and dying of jealousy of all the small waisted girls)
    I'm 5'6" and 165 and
    bust - ....uh..... haven't measured in a while, i'm wearing a 36C bra though so, 39?
    Waist - 31
    hips 39

    Built like a cinderblock.

    waist - 31
    hips - 39.5

    Haha - I'm another cinderblock! I carry most of my weight in my thighs and muffin top, but I also have a really short waist and a wide rib cage. I don't think my waist ever measured less than 28", even when I was a muscular stick back in college. I'm a size 10 now and I want to get back to a 6. Probably about 135 lbs.

    hips: 41 (haven't measured that in awhile)

    Edit: I am also a 36C, Tameko.

    Wow, its so interesting to see so many differences in our bodies, but they are all beautiful!

    Here's where I stand:

    Height: Just under 5'7"
    Weight: 149
    Bust: 34
    Waist: 29
    Hips: 39

    Looking to drop another 10lbs and a couple of inches from my waist and hips. I am the definition of a pear shape.

    I'm a Clydesdale:

    weight 180-something, 5'5.5"
    bust 40 (AA), which they rarely make... so lululemon sports bra size 10-12
    waist 33
    Hips 40
    wear pants also 10-12

    I'm solid, so I don't mind. I don't like how thick my shoulders/bust & arms are (15" bicep), my legs are strong and fit... so appropriately I dub myself a Clydesdale.

    It's really hard to compare your weightloss results with someone else whenever that person could have a completely different body type. I to know what realistic mesurement goals I can set myself because I'm not sure if the number on the scale is enough on its own.

    I'm 5ft 5/ 5ft 6 (167 cm)
    I weigh 126 lbs
    36 - 27 - 37

    I am the same height (if you go with 5'5") with the same measurements. But I weight 141. Just to illustrate that there is a difference between different people. Crazy isn't it?

    Did any of you start with 50 inch or so hips? If so what did you end up down to?

    Mine were 51" and now just under 41". I'm aiming to lose another couple of inches off them.

    I'm 5'6" and my waist is 30" and my boobs 38". As you can see in my pic i'm a bit of an hourglass. I'm aiming to lose 2-3" off hips/boobs/waist. I'm not entirely sure of my bra size at the moment as having kids has changed it, but i'm still wearing a variety of old bras and haven't been measured. I'm probably around a 34D (UK so possibly C in the US).

    Well - lessee here... (chest is at ribcage)

    Started at about 44/48/55 at 236
    Presently down to about 42/43/50.5 at 200

    *sigh*

    Still have another 50-60 lbs to lose (at least), but planning to get off my butt and start doing some strength training in 2013.

    The 42" chest with a B cup is annoying, but will probably take a long time to adjust as my ribs need to collapse back down. Mostly because bras that fit are expensive or ugly or both!

    Eventual goal is something like: 36/38, 34/36, 38/40, as that's about what I was in college at 140. May not be realistic, but I'll re-evaluate in April and see where I'm at.

    I have a little bit of an hourglass from the front or back, but from the sides I'm pretty much a cube. *shrug* Always was, even "skinny" - my nickname as a child was "the Fridge", mostly on account of the giant manly shoulders and the vaguely male figure. (Hips? What hips? I had a 34" waist and 37" hips....)

    Hang in there. At the end of the day, everybody's awesome and beautiful. You just have to find your unique awesome.

    I have two scales that don't agree so here are my weights :) 128 or 123
    H: 36
    W: 27
    B: 36

    I've been going with my lower weight as that's the scale I started on and bought the other one to measure my BF which is currently at 22.9%. I feel like I've lost enough weight and want to start toning up instead.

    I don't know my measurements, but I was wondering if anyone want's to be my weight loss partner?

    I weigh 132lbs, and it just doesn't fit my frame at all. I want to get down to 110lbs, maybe lower.

    I feel like my thin female flatmate is judging me all the time, I just wanna be thin and healthy.

    Please help someone!

    Cathy :)

    I'm 167cm (5'5 3/4") 60kgs (132ish). I'm reasonably muscular

    Bust (under) - 30 (77cm)
    Waist (narrowest part not belly button) - 26 (67cm)
    Hips (hip bone) - 32 (82cm)

    This is just to clarify where these measurements come from. Some of the differences we see here in this thread might be because some people measure above or on but. Some people measure belly button for waist and soem people probably measure different parts of their hips. I basically just picked good points for consistency for comparison purposes.

    B - 37
    W - 30
    H- 38 (below my hipbones around the widest part of my butt)

    LOL. I just realized I had replied a month ago and my measurements are now an inch or so smaller than they were then.:happy:

    I am 5' 6 & 3/4"..a little taller than requested...but, as of now, my stats are as follows:

    B: 34

    W: 28

    H: 42 (lol..I have always had wide hips/pronounced backside...so...I don't imagine this will change much as there isn't much fat on my hips and I don't lose much from the back.)

    Weight= ~150 lbs, though I haven't weighed in a little while because I don't have a scale at my apartment atm.

    Fluctuating currently, but about 146lbs.
    I haven't taken measurements lately, but last was:
    bust: 34"
    waist: 31"
    hips: 39.5"

    I want to lose 3" from my waist and hips. I currently wear a size 8. I carry most of my weight on low belly/hips. which was not the case before kids! lol. dangit.

    A size 8 in what brand?
