Inches matter more to me

[DoeWDW]

I do check the scale but I find inches are more important to me. My goal is to be wearing size 10 clothes - at whatever weight that turns out to be. The last time I was in that size, I weighed 127 lbs so I've listed 127 as my goal weight, but I really don't care what I weigh as long as I'm wearing size 10s.

I check my measurements every week on Sunday. Even during those weeks that I don't lose weight, I have lost inches, so the tape measure helps me stay motivated.

I bought a special tape measure, but I can't figure out where I am supposed to measure to get an accurate reading. I stopped doing it, and I wish I would have taken the time to figure it out.

Actually, I figure even if I'm doing it wrong, as long as I do it the same way every time, it will tell me if I'm losing.

This may be a silly question but what parts of your body do you measure? I am thinking chest, waist, hips and upper and lower arms and legs. Is there anything else? Thanks for any info.
