I need some tips on how to measure waist, legs, arms. Like how do you know you have the same spot or are there certain places or what:huh: . I am going to try to go by measurements and not the scale. I need to replace the fat with muscle:bigsmile:

    I use this link: http://egl.livejournal.com/15507526.html

    You can ignore the tidbits about lolita fashion but the directions for where to measure almost everywhere is wonderful.

    I usually keep track of:
    - neck (1" up from collar bone)
    - bust (wear a supportive bra, right across nipples and centered on band)
    - waist (smallest part of torso)
    - stomach (around belly button)
    - hips (around widest part of bottom; roughly centered on your bum cheeks)
    - upper arms (thickest looking part)
    - upper thighs (again, thickest looking part)
