When is the best time to measure?

I just wanted to see when you all measure yourselves? Is it a beginning of the day thing like weigh-ins or is it at some other time? I haven’t ever really measured myself before for any extensive period of time, but I like the idea of seeing the inches change even if the scale doesn’t.

    I only measure about once a month and I do it in the morning after I weigh just because that’s when it’s on my mind. I don’t know if it actually matters.

    Yeah, I wasn’t sure. (I’m familiar with the scale and that’s about it!) lol!

    From everything I've read, it's best to do it right after waking up, post-bathroom activities ;) and before you start rehydrating.
    And be consistent!

    Thank you! I know that was probably a silly question, but I figured I would ask!
