When people post that they have lost a certain number of inches, what parts of the body are they measuring? I know everyone is probably different, but is there a general "list" that would be standard for most people? I personally measure my neck, chest, waist, hips, thigh, and upper arm.

    I do the exact same as you, although from what I've seen I've not lost a single millimeter yet *sigh*

    I do all the same measurements as you, minus the neck. Don't know why..just never thought about it.
    I measure once a month.

    I don't measure, but right now I am so frustrated with the whole thing that I am giving all it takes not to give up.

    I do the same measurements as you but not the neck. I also do just above the knee.
