    I'm mainly focusing on getting my BF% down and if I lose a bit of weight in the process that's a plus too. I'm already at a healthy BMI, close to the low end, so I'm not too worried about losing a lot of weight just getting fit and healthy. I keep up with my progress on my profile page as well. Friend me if you want :smile:.

    Yaaaaaasss! I don't own a scale or tape measure actually but I think Tape measures are cheaper than scales so I'll do that. LAst I checked ( which was almost a year ago) I was a 26" waist. Would like to get to 23". I'm under 5 feet so that's not as crazy as it sounds I don't think ;)

    I find that when I lose weight my measurements go down. I also monitor my body fat percentage. If I lose weight, it usually goes down as well.

    I am happy to share: This AM, I tried on a pair of pants that zipped up pretty easily. When I started this journey they were sooooo tight.

    I joined MFP on April 28 and lost 2 ibs in three days; however, my waist stays at 27.5. My short term goal (before my summer trip) is 26.5; my ultimate goal is 25-25.5. I will share my progress on our forum. Thank you for having me.

    I wish I could have this as my goal! Unfortunately I'm so short waisted with wide hips and ribs, and lose fat from my belly first, so I don't think I'll go any lower. But my goal is definitely based on what I see in the mirror and how strong and healthy I feel.

    Great idea!
    Waist: 25"
    Hips: 32.5"

    Not sure what I'm trying to get to. Definitely 1 to 2 in off my waist
