Question about measurements..

[LisaKae]

HI everyone! I am new here to BB.com, and I was wondering, as a woman if you are measuring your "chest", do you post your measurement that includes your breasts, or do you use your "back" measurement (just under the breasts)? Because I notice, esp. around PMS time, that as my "back" is shrinking, my "chest" may stand still, or even grow?

For example:
April 24th, my chest msmt was 56 inches, my back was 47 inches. Breasts=9 inches.
Last week my chest msmt. was 54 inches, my back was 46 inches. Breasts= 8 inches. Loss breast -1", loss back -1", thus 2' overall msmt.
Now, 3 weeks later, my chest is 54 inches, my back is 45 3/4 inches. Breasts=8-1/4". Gain breast 1/4", loss back -1/4", thus no change in overall chest msmt???? Arrgh.

I think we women ahould have 2 progress charts. One for back and one for "chest"....LOL

Any input would be appreciated!

Thanks and hello everyone!

For my chest I include my boobs

They're not that much difference but every little bit helps LOL

Yeah, for chest, I just measure straight around my breasts. If you like you can do the "underbust" measurement as a separate measurement.
