Ok, I said in the calves thread, I was tempted to do this, and since someone said they would post, I am doing it, lol.
I love numbers and figures and facts and lists and the like, so here we go.

What are your measurements?

Mine are :

Height - 5'9.6
Chest - 32 (over cup) 30 band
Waist -25-25.5(depending on time of day it seems)
Hips - 35
Thigh(widest part) -19
Calf (widest part)- 13
biceps - 8.5
Forearm - 8
Wrist - 5.5

Feel free to add any others you'd like to add :)

    Are you claiming waist as the narrowest point, or at the navel? And on bust, band measurement, or over the cups? I take new measurements tomorrow morning. Stats interest me too, just want to be sure everyone is reporting consistently.

    (Yes, I am one of those with an excel spreadsheet of each months measurements, charts to track complete with trendlines.) :-p

    My bust was taken over the cups. Band is 33, if you want another number.:laugh:

    My natural waist is about an inch above my navel. I'd read to take waist where you bend naturally, since torso length can affect where your waist "sits".

    Waist at the narrowest part.
    Bust... hmm, I didn't consider that at all. I measured mine over the cup.
    Would it be preferable to measure band measurement?

    Is that the site that has several different bf calculators? I tried several on one site, and got two different results.

    Height: 5' 7"
    CW: 150
    Bust (over cups): 34.5"
    Waist: 27"
    Hips: 38" (wahhhh!)
    Thighs: 21.5"
    Calves: 14.5"
    Biceps: 11.5"

    I wish I'd been tracking all of these measurements all along, but when I started I only measured bust/waist/hips (i.e. dress measurements). However, I am proud to say that thus far I have lost 3" around my bust, 4.5" around my waist and 3.5" around my hips! If I could just lose another inch around the waist and hips I think I'd be happy (my boobs have gotten quite small enough thankyouverymuch :laugh: )

    Yes, that site has 3 different calculators. I got different results on them too, but their "original" calculator was almost right one compared to the bod pod (at least for me) .

    And those still early in the journey - don't regret posting. It is great to track measurements early on, not just weight. Yet another positive feedback measure along the journey! (Hey, I didn't start at these measurements either.)

    I'm a bit sad that I don't have accurate measurements for when I was at my goal weight! I didn't know how to measure correctly then...for instance, I always thought "hips" meant to measure at the hip bone - it's actually more of a butt measurement :S So my butt is way bigger than I originally thought it was!

    Ok, here we go...

    5'9.5
    CW 176
    Bust: 39; Under Band 34
    Waist: 32
    Hips: 44 (I wonder if having hip dysplasia makes my hips so huge?!)
    Thighs: 25

    Here is the REALLY crazy thing. I was looking at some measurements that I took in August of 2010. I was 160 pounds with the same hips and thighs and a larger waist (33.5) I can't wait to hit 160 again and see how different my measurements will be!!

    My hips are the bane of my existence, even when I was very underweight, they never dropped below about 33/34 inches.
