    It sounds like you have hips/a waist.
    Hips are neat. So are waists.
    I wouldn't recommend surgery to get rid of your hips or waist. You need them.
    You're in a good weight range for your height too. Don't worry too much!

    I'm not sure what you're question is.

    Are you saying you feel your belly measurement is too large for your height/weight?

    Lift heavy weights, it's the best way to dial in inches.

    are you sure your waist at the bellybutton is 37 inches? why would you want surgery? measure your waist at its smallest point. that should be an inch or two above your belly button. my waist at its smallest point in 28 inches but 30.5 inches at the bellybutton. try lifting weights and doing ab exercises to develop more muscle mass in your core.

    I've never heard of measuring at your belly button... You need to measure at your natural waist, where it's the smallest.

    I measure at the belly button separately from my waist. I call it my "Muffin Top" :)
