I am taking my measurements, along with checking the scale. I get more amazed by losses in measurements than some random number on a scale.
Anyway, I bought this great measureing tape from Ebay and it just got here today. It got Curves name on it but I believe its Avon who markets it. Anyways, you just wrap it around and push a button, then it sucks into your curves and you got your measurement. Its really easy, especially for someone who cant even see her waist or hips (look down and just see "the girls").
