    Waist is at your belly button line and hips are YOUR HIPS! lol

    Or, measure where ever you want and just make sure to always check the same place:bigsmile:

    for waist I measure the smallest part, for hips I measure the largest. It doesn't matter where you do it as long as you always do it in the same place.

    Put the tape around you & then you are supposed to bend side to side and that is were your natural waste is. I learned this a couple of years ago when I went to Curves & they took measurements. Then you Hips shoud be measured about 6 inches below your waist. They said around the lower part of your butt cheeks. Hope this helps some.
