Ladies! What is your goal waist measurement?

I know we don't all lose inches exactly where we want, but does anyone have a set waist measurement they would like to get down to? And how many inches have you lost so far around the middle?

    Yea, I know I can't dictate where the inches come off, but I was there before, so am hoping for it again. My hope is for my waist measurement to be lower than my inseam (34"). I've lost 1 inch of my waist so far. How about you?

    That's a good goal. Do you just have a little bit left to lose?

    Well this is probably unrealistic, but I would like to have a 24 inch waist. I've never been that little though so I don't know if it is possible.

    I'm currently at 27ish. I'd like to be 26, but I don't think that's possible. I don't think I have anything left to lose there. Oh well. I'll still keep building muscles.

    A 25 or 26. I'm at 26.5 right now, so not sure how much smaller my waist can get.

    Right now I'm at like 36" I wouldn't mind 27-29" ...I honestly don't care as long as I have a smaller stomach (doesn't have to be flat)

    I'm aiming for a 24 inch waist. Haven't been that small before, always been 26 even at like age 15, but i'm down to 25 inches now, due to dropping my bodyfat and getting lean :)

    I've just lost an inch off my waist! (28"-27")

    I put it down to all the hula hooping I've been doing :P also starting to get some abbs! ;D

    once i'm out of the 30s I'll be happy lol. I think 28 as an ultimate goal is good

    That's were I carry most of my weight, my problem area. I began my journey with a 43'' waist, looked like I was 7 months preggo. At the moment I currently measure a 33'' waist. I'm 5'7 and honestly not sure what my goal would be.. any ideas ladies??

    Me? Yea, I'm still at the beginning, I've lost 20 #'s so far (10 was before mfp) and have roughly 100 #s more. I feel lucky that I don't think I look as overweight as I actually am. I'm a bit taller than average, so "hide" it well.
    I had to answer though, because you asked a question that kinda hit the head on the nail of my secret goal (the waist measurement smaller than inseam), and maybe typing it, and having it out there will help me work harder for it.

    This exactly
    I'm currently 33 and below 30 is where I'm headed.

    I started at 30, I'm at 29.5, and I'd like to be at 26. Seems attainable. I'm not sure how lost inches correlate to pounds lost, but I am trying to lose 12, started at 16. Is that a practical goal?

    I'm 5'2.5" and started with a 29" waist. I'm down to 26-25" depending on how bloated I am. :blushing: What makes a big difference is what kind of shape you're in. I don't think I'd mind a larger waist if it were tight, toned, or both. Even at 25", my waist is still squishy. Just something to take into consideration...

    I would like to get back to 27, that was after two kids and I have had two more. But I dream of my high school size, 24.

    I'm 5'8" so we would probably have similar goals, I would think? Does 26 sound right?

    Hopefully back to 23"-24". Currently not budging at 24.5". I may just have to accept the fact that I am not 18 any more!

    Just measured mine this morning and im happy its almost a 31. which means by the time im done 20 lbs or a lil more from now it should be around a 28 atleast. Id be happy with that. 27 might be pushing it. But my goal weight is 150-or 145. A size 8 jeans would be great.

    I'm at 33.5" right now, and not sure how much more I can lose there, since I'm kinda "sturdy" framed. 32" would be just fine with me :)

    I started my weight loss at 29 1/2 inch waist, my goal is 24"inch waist. The smallest my waist has been is 23" but that's when I had no muscle and was too skinny...I am currently 27 1/2 inch and I have 18 more pounds to lose so we'll see.
