For the record, the above photos were actually taken on January 29th, 2008. I just didn't have a newer paper and really didn't want to be going out in the -40 degree cold to get one.

Best wishes to everyone.

My goals:
-lose 25 pounds. Down to 169 lbs. Lose inches (not sure of an exact number).
-fit comfortably into a size 12/14 pants and large shirt.
-weight lift 3x a week for 45 minutes. Cardio 3x a week for 1/2 hour.
-eat clean.
-take time for myself. For the past four years (age of oldest son), I have put myself on the back burner. I feel 20 years older than I actually am, and I believe I look it too.

Body Measurements

I am new to this message board. I am thinking of joining this contest as it sounds like good motivation. One question, does anyone have a link for directions on how to measure yourself correctly?

Thank you.

when doing measurements, does stomach mean the same thing as waist? I'm not quite sure how/where to measure my stomach.

Measure at your natural waist, which is approximately 2" above your hip bone. This pretty much equates to the horizontal plane on which your belly button lies. I suggest this because it is probably the area of your core with the greatest circumference, measuring as it does the middle of your waist and love handles. It should most closely/accurately reflect any changes.

Good luck.

Addendum: If you are uncomfortable posting your pictures on here, send me a PM and I will give you an email address to send them too ... the pictures will remain with me only and will never be published without your permission

From the first page. PM Nikegirl, not me. But include on your initial post either the photos, or photos sent. Photos are required.

That is pretty much where I measured my stomach for this contest - but I have always thought of my waist as being a different place than that - i.e. where my sides pinch in to the narrowest! It is lucky that the form did not have a measurement saying waist or I would have got it wrong!
