My goal is to lose some size and be less "squishy". But that's not very measurable. Anyone have any non-scale goals to offer as examples?

    It is absolutely measureable! I take my measurements and also check my bodyfat. I do my waist, hips, thighs, calves, biceps and chest. Then I have these little pinchers I ordered off the internet and I keep track of my bodyfat that way. If you belong to a gym, they can do it for you there too. I also take a picture of myself in similar clothing once a week and compare my pics to see changes and progress.

    Good luck with your goals!

    I accidently bought panties that are to small. My tubby squishes out the top like crazy. Although it's not like they are expensive or even that cute, I really want to be able wear them. I think it's my pride...

    ddamore - 30DS will definitely get you started on tightening up. I'm on ripped in 30 now. Do planks, planks, and planks some more.

    I would love to see definition in the side of my thigh (quad) again. I haven't seen that for several years.

    A few of us are doing a "thermometer jeans" challenge, basically the goal is to measure success by how a particular pair of jeans or other piece of clothing (panties work too!) fits over time.

    Jenomaha, I'm intrigued by the pinchers you found on the internet. Do you remember where you got them?
