It’s easy to get discouraged when you work so hard to lose weight and your efforts don’t seem to pay off on the scale.

Measurements are a useful way to track your progress.   Many times you’ll see a loss of inches even if the scale isn’t moving.

Here are some instructions and tips to help you.

Chest: Place the measuring tape just under your breasts/pecs and measure around the torso while keeping the tape parallel to the floor.

 

Waist: Place the measuring tape about a 1/2 inch above your bellybutton (at the narrowest part of your waist) to measure around your torso. When measuring your waist, exhale and measure before inhaling again.

 

Hips: Place the measuring tape across the widest part of your hips/buttocks and measure all the way around while keeping the tape parallel to the floor.

 

Legs: Place the measuring tape across the widest part of each of your legs and measure all the way around while keeping the tape parallel to the floor.
