[QUOTE="geefull, post: 1765544, member: 305199"] [USER=370848]@Mal37[/USER] I have a similar thing, my waist is a previously unheard of (for me ;) ) 32.5 inches now, I'm 5 ft 4 inches and I've got my BMI down to 25.2, which my doctor is very happy about, having lost more than half my original body weight from when I was diagnosed :) she's quite happy with me at my current weight and doesn't think I should be trying to get it down any further. I do get a reasonable amount of exercise too. but - I don't think that my waist is going to get any smaller, I'm short waisted and don't have a long gap between the bottom of my rib cage and the top of my hip bones, it's just how the shape of my body frame is. I have a bit of spare skin from the weight loss but I'm not going to get too stressed about what is a general guideline. Stand in front of a mirror in your undies and take a good look, it may be that your body frame/shape doesn't lend itself to a smaller waist either :) [/QUOTE]
