This may or may not suit your data needs, but if your data is all in one contiguous block, you can use CurrentRegion instead of UsedRange, like this:

With Cells(1, 1).CurrentRegion
 MsgBox "I have " & .Rows.Count & " rows and " & .Columns.Count & " columns of data."
End With

Of course, if the region you care about does not start at cell A1, or if your sheet contains multiple contiguous regions that you care about, this option will not work. Depending on how predictable your data is, you can usually find at least one cell in each block of data, and once you have that, CurrentRegion will give you the range of the entire block.
