Question Aaahhhh!! Measurements!

Ok Chicks,
I need some help on this. I don't know what to do.
I would like to know whwere do I measure on these areas: Arms, stomach, and thigh areas?
I went to one site they said:
Arm: to measure above the arm (close to the shoulder area).
Stomach: 2 spots, between the ribs and the belly button and also under the belly button.
Thigh: 2 spots, near the crotch area and also another measurement near the knee.

Another site I went to said:
Arm: Between the shoulder and the elbow
Stomach: At belly button area
Thigh: between crotch and knee

I have no idea what to go by. Please help

i don't think it really matters what you choose, just so long as you keep measuring in the same places each time you measure.

i use www.mybodycomp.com to do my measurements.

I've been measuring
bust
natural waist
belly -
behind
upper thigh
upper arm
calf
I wish I would have started when I started dieting..
I just started with measurements June 6th and I've lost 22 inches
15 inches just in the month of July..
now the important thing for me was I only lost 8 lbs in July but I started working out!
This was pretty exciting to lose 15 inches in a month for me!
Now I will continue once a month and when I'm feeling frustrated with the scales hopefully the tape measure will continue to be my friend!
