  • Waist: Measure at navel level, or at the narrowest point if different
  • Hip (women only): Measure at the widest point around the hips/buttocks
  • Measure in the morning before eating, with relaxed muscles
  • Use a flexible measuring tape, keeping it parallel to the floor
  • Don't pull the tape too tight - it should be snug but not compressing skin
