Hi, Everyone.
Do you have a goal in mind for each of your body measurements? I had no clue where to even find that information. I finally came across the following web site, where you can key in your wrist measurement, and it calculates your ideal body measurements from that. Check it out, and see what you think.

For those of us who fear success:

Blessings to All,
Mary

 Hey, just another idea... set a clothing size goal and went onto the website for 1 or 2 stores and looked at the size charts for the size i wanted to be. That gave me at least some of the measurements

Now, why didn't I ever think of that! Awesome idea. Maybe I'm the ONLY ONE who had no clue about measurements! That sounds like me. LOL  I think I spent so many years ignoring my body, that I'm just not used to thinking rationally about it.

I'm thinking that web site link works only for guys. I don't know. Maybe you can put your wrist measurement in and see what it says, since you way more itty bitty than I am. :)

I put my wrist size in it and it said my neck should be a 16 and my chest a 45....I think this is for guys too....My neck is a 14! I am not going up!! We need one for women.

I'm not going up, either! :)  I'll keep looking. SURELY, if there's something for the guys, there will be something for the gals. I guess we could go back to the "perfect" figure of the mid-20th century. Wasn't it something like 36 24 36? ;)

Hey Ms. Mary-

I did it and it seemed to be close to target for me. My neck size was almost dead on. My calve size was a bit bigger and of course my thigh and waist aren't ideal (YET!)...I don't know if it is for men and women or just men, BUT I love the clothing chart idea..

And thanks for calling me itty bitty! I wi**** was true, but I am working on it
