So this weigh-in does not count in the actual biggest loser blog edition challenge, but I'm proud to say that I weighed in at 167.5lbs, which is a -2.5lb loss!!!! So that's super exciting and even though I've had weigh-ins that were lower than this, going from 170 to 167.5 on my official weigh in day is exciting for me.
So I wanted to record my measurments just to keep track and I'll try to update them/post progress photos every month or so.
Here are my measurements:
waist 28.5
bust: 39.5
under bust 32.5
stomach 33
hips 38
butt 41
r. thigh 25
l thigh 24.75
Since the last time I measured, I've lot 1/2 an inch on my waist so that's exciting! When I weighed my lowest, I remember my bust being 38 inches, my waist being 27 inches and my hips being 36 inches. I wouldn't mind keeping my bust size as it is now, since i love having big boobies. I want to get my waist down to 27inches and my hips to 36 or 37 inches. Makes pants buying a lot easier. As you guys can guess, I'm an hourglass figure and I have broad shoulders and a pair of thunder-licious thighs. So buying pants can be a nightmare with the pants not going over my thighs, or going over my thighs but hanging off my waist. But to be honest, pants-buying is a nightmare for EVERYONE so I shouldn't complain.
Here's a starter photo to measure my progress by:

Good job on the loss!!
ReplyDeleteYou must be tall, because we are the same weight, but you look way thinner than me (=
Congrats on the job!
I'm around 5'7.5 ish. And I'm blessed with an hourglass figure which is a body shape that looks a lot less like what it actually weighs.
ReplyDelete-2.5 lbs!? Thats awesome!! Keep up the awesome work.
ReplyDeleteand im also rocking the hourglass figure, and have the same problem as you , fits perfect on the theighs, but is then way too big in the waist. i guess thats why they invented cute belts!
Grat loss!! Keep up the great work!!!

ReplyDeleteHey girl we're in the same boat. At least we can thank the stars that our fat goes to our hips which healthwise is better for our heart/arteries
