I am 61-62kg, most of my fat is at the waist.
I just noticed I said 26 waist, it's more like 28.5 O_o other measurements are accurate.

Fat's been redistributed nicely & evenly but the bones have remained intact.  Can they widen?  Don't think so but there's always hip enhancement surgery.  Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't one of the famous FFS doctors, Dr. Zukowsky in Illinois, USA, do this kind of surgery?

Uh oh. I'm gigantic. :(

Height: 75
Weight: 215
Shoulder: 44.5
Bust: 43
Underbust: 36.5
Waist: 33.5
Hips: 43.5

I started HRT 7 years ago, at 23 years old. I weighed about 240 then. My weight post-transition has gone as high as 260 and as low as 200. I think right now I have at least 50 pounds to lose, especially around my midsection, but other people tell me I'm crazy when I say that. I was down to 210 before my GRS, which didn't take a whole lot of exercise -- I just stopped snacking and eating junk food. I have a weakness for dark chocolate (especially with mint) and ice cream.

My hips have always been pretty wide, but they definitely gained a few inches in circumference. They actually ached in my first two years of transition. I am okay with the width at this point, though I'd love another inch or two to bring them even with my shoulders. The main problem is the height. Since my hips are both wide and tall, I have a lot of trouble finding pants that fit right. I'm planning liposculpture, because I have some stubborn fat right above the crest that doesn't seem to go away. I'm hoping some goes away as I continue to lose weight, but even then I am pretty sure it won't look right without surgical intervention.

My breasts used to be nearly a C-cup, but I lost about a cup size as I've lost weight. Now I wear a 40B, but don't fill it all the way. I've tried 42A, but the fit is wrong. I can practically swim in my old 42B bras. I used to be happy about not needing a BA, but as I continue to eat right, I am set on implants -- I'm just worried that they will look wrong because of my frame.

I started hormones at seventeen, and have been on them for two years. I don't believe that my hip bones have widened, however, if they have, I haven't noticed.

I'm 45kg/100lbs at 5'4"/160cm, so any growth I've experienced would probably be bone growth. Hopefully, as I gain weight, my hips will accumulate enough fat to discontinue my dependence on belts.

I'm 30, my roommate says they've widened but I have a hard time believing him. I know they've gotten wider but I'm not sure if the bones widened or if there's more muscle / fat there. I'd say it's more fat due to common sense but they don't feel very cushioned.

However, there's a theory out there that we all widen with age... HRT or not. http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/43196931/ns/today-today_health/t/no-fair-hip-bones-really-do-widen-age/#.UM2ebuTAd8E
To dream of the person you would like to be is to waste the person you are.

That's very interesting, I thought the skeleton was static, I guess not.

I'm 21-and-10-months, and I started HRT at 21-minus-4-days. My testosterone is dead; however, my estradiol dose is so low this is the only part of me I can say estradiol changed so far.

I don't have any reliable measurement and am feeling too lazy to take any (whaaaaat? ._.) but since I was -losing- weight all the time, I can testify that it's not fat. My hip bones have grown a bit. Not a ton, but a bit. I had those jeans that fit really perfectly, bought a few months before beginning HRT, and after a while, they just hurt too much at the hips to be worn. Now I lost a little bit of extra weight, so I can wear them again if I'm out of clothes, but they still hurt.

Oh yeah, uhm, some numbers I can provide. I'm 165 cm (5'5") high, and currently weigh a little over 130 lbs. Looks like it might be 132. Gotta love precise scales. I probably weighed about 10 or 12 extra pounds when I started HRT.

My hips have definitely widened. I first noticed when I was sitting in the sand. I was talking with my friend. And I look down and see my knees are facing each other. My legs were in the position of a cis girl. I think I've always had a female type pelvis. I feel as though my skeletal structure was in constant conflict with testosterone. After numerous chiropractor visits and doc appts(they couldn't figure out what was causing it). I was really dismayed with my lower back. Especially since my back went out about 6months before starting hrt. When I started hrt, my back pain that I had been suffering from for years, practically went away in less then a few days. I can't begin to describe the feeling of peace I get now that the nasty pain is gone.

If I do get back pain now. It's because of bad posture (working on it) and nowhere near as painful as it used to be. Hrt has truly been a magical for me

My hips gained in size from 34" to 37"
I'm 22

And btw A, just hit my 9 month! congrats on going onto 11!! I'll be there soon  ;)

Would you volunteer hips waist bust measurements?

Whatever Sophia Loren's measurements are, pencil that in for me.  ;)

Otherwise, forget about it! :D
