No change in anything for me.

I will choose Garnet with a silver clasp, althought I have a question about the Olive, from the little pix it looks like there is lots of color variation, is this how it looks in larger bits of the cloth? :)

I gotta duck outta the challenge guys. Along with not having any change in weight or measurments in a while, I'm also moving, and so the scale is going to be away for a bit.

Thanks Nana~ for putting all this together!

Weight 186

UnderBust 35.5

Waist 39

Hips 38.5

I think I would like black with a silver clasp.

My weight dropped but not inches, Mandy

waist 45 1/2

I've gained 3lbs this weekend! Not too bad, considering that my wife and I spent the weekend in Reno/Tahoe..........buffets and booze!! Nana, if for some miracle that I won the contest, I guess I would chose black! With Thanksgiving coming up, I doubt if that is going to happen!

Hey Nana~ I'm at home, and Idon't have a tape measure here, only in ID. So I have no idea about my inches, but I just got home from the doc, and it turns out that I've gained 5 pounds, so put me at 242.

Okay, I'm back from 10 days in rural Mexico, and I guess it did me some good. Here's my stats:

weight 231

under bust 42

waist 44

hips 49.5

Monday, November 28, 2005:-

Weight - 181.8

Under Bust - 33

Waist - 30.5

Hips - 44

Guess that fill last Monday did help :)
