What would be an average measurement goal for me?
I'm 21 years old, female, 5'3", and my goal weight is 120lbs.
My beginning measurements were :
Bust: 34"
Waist: 31"
Hips: 38"

Exactly a week after starting my measurements currently are:
Bust: 34"
Waist: 29.5"
Hips: 37"

If you're my height and my goal weight(or have the same goal to be 120lbs) what are your measurements or goal measurements? Or just to anyone in general what do you think would be good goal measurements? I'd figure them out myself but I really have a bad eye for measurements lol. Thanks in advance!

    I'm 5'2 and 117 pounds looking to just tone up a little by getting back to 108 pounds like I was a few years ago.

    Waist=26 inches
    Hips= 36 inches

    I don't really have a goal measurement...I will just go by what looks good in the mirror/feels best.

    everyone holds their weight differently so it would be pretty difficult to say what YOUR measurements should be as it's impossible to spot reduce anyway so having "goal measurements" could turn out to be rather futile.

    People all have very different body types. It'd be very difficult to say, not knowing your body shape.

    When I took the survey it said I was a pear I think. I have a somewhat short torso and a majority of my weight is in my stomach, hips, and thighs. I'd post a picture in my post but idk how.

    Still. Some pears are going to have overall smaller measurements, and some will be bigger. A lot of it depends on bone structure. How wide your ribcage and hips are, how small your waist is (some people just never have a tiny waist, even with low body fat), and even things like breast size are very genetic. You may lose your boobs when you lose body fat. Some people don't lose an ounce of boobage when they lose 25 pounds. Like another poster said, the attempt to reach a specific measurement may end up being futile if your body doesn't allow for it. When I lost ten pounds, I didn't lose an inch in my hips because I never really had a butt to begin with. A hip measurement of 34 inches for me is simply NOT attainable.
