Here are some pictures I took with the measuring tape this afternoon. Where I'm holding the tape is what my measurements were when I started in January. Enjoy!

    Nice idea and taught me too that I'm measuring my abdomen as waist. Now I see that I might be few inches less than what I actually measure. lol.

    EDIT: o yes, and good work !

    Well looks like I'm a n00b at this. So taking inspirations from the picture, I tried to google the right method to measure oneself,:
