    how often to measure??

    How often do you measure? I took my measurements (hips, waist, bust, l thigh, r thigh, r arm, l arm did I get all the spots?) last night and I am starting to work out today. When do I measure again? Oh and I am down another pound. That makes total of 16 since Jan 1!!!!

      I also measure once a week...these are the areas I measure

      calves
      Thigh up 7 inches from the top of my knee
      Thigh up 9 inches from the top of my knee
      hips
      pouch (between my hips and my belly button)
      waist at belly button
      chest (under bra/breasts)
      arm

      Make sure you measure in the SAME SPOT every time...like I have a mole (I like to call it a beauty mark...hahaha) where I take my hip measurement...and another one where I take my pouch measurement... that type of thing..cause even a little change in the AREA that you measure and your measurements could be quite a bit off.


      Happy measuring :nod
