Measurement questions!

SevenisHeaven

OKay, so I measured myself in December when I started this and was urged to do it again today. So...I did and am not sure how to inturpret the results.

I am -1 inch off my chest (Yay, have a DDD)
I am -0.5 inch off my waist.
I am 1 inch off my stomach.
I am 2 inches off of my hips.
I am 1 inch off of each of my thighs.

BUT:
I am +1.5 and 1 inch on my calves. WHAT?! WHY!?! Is this normal!? What am I doing wrong?!

Are you working out...this could be muscle gain?!?!?

When did you measure? You could have some fluid retention in your lower legs if it was later in the day. And a big congrats on the lost inches!!!! That's a fab difference in a month!

melhoffman- Yes, I've been doing the elliptical and Wii Fit/Wii EA Sports Active. I never thought of muscle, just kinda freaked out (and measured 6 times) and almost cried.

ouryear002- I didn't think of fluid! I measured the same time of day.. And THANK YOU!

years ago when i went to curves fitness they measured you monthly, i was told when i gained in my legs that it was quite normal to gain inches in my legs due to muscle building.
