I'd suggest you measure yourself while looking into a mirror - that way you can note exactly where on your body you are measuring yourself so your next set is taken from the same place.
Other than that, just get a flexible tape and wrap it around the bits you want to monitor. Wrap it so it's snug, but not so tight that you've got a muffin top going on over the top of the tape.
You want to be able to replicate the method each time so you are measuring the same thing every week/month. You could get your OH to do it for you?0 -

When you CHECK IN, it shows what you should measure. Here is another set of guidelines: http://www.weight-loss-program.com/art13-taking-measurements.html0 -
