Waist Measurement

sjmay

Ok, so every time I measure my waist, I forget exactly where I measured last time :grumble: I am just wondering where everyone else measures.... where do you consider your waist? :blushing: (I know, kinda dumb question, but my mid section is such different sizes)

Thanks :drinker:

The skinniest part of your stomach is your waist.

presariofaded

usually an inch above your belly button

half way between your lowest rib and the top of your hips bones.

what iceprincess said. the skinniest part of your torso

here is what I do.......having researched the subject quite a bit.

1. high waist-at the smallest point, or where you see a bend if you have no definition yet
2. right at the belly button
3. at the widest point on the hips. I picked a spot where I have a scar so I will measure the same each month.

Also, make sure the tape is even in the back. Look in a mirror or have someone help you. I gained an inch once from letting it slip on my butt. I was not a happy camper:grumble:

Good luck and keep up the good work!

I was told by the people at Curves that in order to find my waist I would need to bend side to side and make sure I was measuring where my body bends.

Your question is not dumb at all......I've been wondering if I was measuring my waist or not too & happy to hear that I'm doing the right thing
