I joined Curves finally...a little over 3 weeks ago. Right after that, I started working full time and my full time grad school picked up again. Awesome timing. I hadn't been back since the day I joined. When you first join, they take some measurements - I did those tonight. I am going to put them here. I don't have any qualms about this sort of thing.
Before I do, let me say that I know that there quite a few people I know that weigh a lot less than me, and quite a few that might weigh the same or more. Many of them are happy with their weight and physical condition, others are not. I am not. What matters is not the numbers, but if someone is content with however they are. By putting my numbers out there, I am not saying anything about anyone else when I complain about any of my numbers. It is a very personal thing. I've known people half my size who are miserable with their weight and have horrible body image issues, and I've known just as many (if not more, actually) who weight much much more and are completely content, so please, no matter what kind of relationship you have with your weight/body/condition/etc...don't let it be affected by the things I say about mine.
I hope that makes sense.
Anyway.
Height: 5'7
Weight: 186
(a tie for my heaviest ever, which was my last year in the army. The year I went from 146 to 186)
Bust: 42
Waist: 37
Gut: 43
Hips: 43.5 (see...I really am built like a tree trunk!)
Body fat: 33.5%
(The healthy range for my age group maxes out at 32%)
Pounds of body fat: 62 lbs.
So let's work on this, ok?

Good luck!!!
I think that sometimes by putting yourself out there, it helps someone stick with it.
Oh, and I almost want to join Curves just so I have someone take my measurements. Yes, I technically could do this myself but I'm lazy ::cough which is why I could be fat cough::
Good for You. Keep going and you will feel great. When I start to get in shape I don't weight myself because it is all about how I feel. If I feel in shape I feel sexy.

I don't remember the last time I felt sexy. Maybe that's because I don't remember the last time I was at a healthy weight. 2001 maybe?
