Hey all! I am wanting my husband to measure me so I can accurately track how many inches I am losing in addition to pounds - but where should he be measuring? In the military they measure females around their neck, the skinniest part of our bellies, and around the biggest part of our butts - should he measure me the same way?? Thanks everyone!

    I do measurements on:
    My neck
    My bust (across the "fullest" point)
    My hips (across the "fullest" point)
    My waist (across the smallest point)

    Good luck!

    I get my measurements done a Curves. They have you bend to the side, where it creases is where they measure my waist, the largest part of your bust, hips and thigh. Oh, and upper arms.
