dont know what "normals" measurements are and i am just trying to compare myself with other, thanks!

    Just keep in mind that not everyone of the same height/age/weight whatever will have the same measurements. You can be a few inches larger or smaller than someone else of your height and weight.

    Two people can weigh the same and be of the same height but one could be a few inches smaller if they have a higher muscle mass/lower body fat % than the other.

    I had your measurements when I weighed 10lbs more than you.

    I'm 5'4, I was weighing around 140ish when I started and my hips were around 41" and my stomach was around 31".

    I haven't measured my chest and bust.

    I know, I just wanted to get a general idea for anyone in my height range. I plan on losing close to 30 pounds, and about 2 inches off my waist.

    I think that bone structure also makes a difference. I forget what my measurements are, but I think they are relatively big for my bmi due to my wide hips. I'll have to find my tape measure when I get home.

    You girls are so small! Im jealous! Im 29, 5'4, currently weigh 168 and my waist is 34 and hips are 39 (didnt measure my bust etc lately) Im working on getting rid of the baby pouch and the weight i gained from quitting smoking. I have a larger frame so i had a flat stomach at 155 pds but would like to get to 145-150 and go from there when i go under 145 people think i have an eating disorder because i look too skinny, does this happen to anyone else? It seems alot of 5'4 women have tiny frames.

    I'm 5 ft 51/2inches tall and 49 years old. Small frame as well. I measure once a month so these measurements are from the first of January (I'm crossing my fingers for a little progress)

    Bust 36" Waist 30" Hips 38". I'm currently 144 pounds.

    So yeah, I would say you are pretty normal from the above sampling.

    I am 5'5" and 138 pounds. I can't find my tape measure, so I don't know my exact measurements. However, I have big boobs, no butt/hips, skinny arms and legs and fat gut (hence, my being at MFP). What has shocked me most was my Fitbit scale says I am 34% body fat which means 47 pounds of me is fat! The boobs are probably 2 pounds of fat each, but that still means most of the remaining is around my waist. We are all shaped different and our blobby parts are different too.

    when people say waist, do they mean the area around their belly button or the smallest part of their waist?

    any sort of scale that measure body fat percentage is not going to be accurate.

    I was reading another thread the other day and someone posted this website. http://www.mybodygallery.com
    It has blown me away. You can enter your height/weight and body shape to see other women the same size. We all look so different (and most likely dread looking at ourselves naked) but are all beautiful in our own way.
