    If I know exactly I can get this right the first time and know how to do it going forward.
    1) "Find your natural waist. An easy way to do this is to stand in front of the mirror and bend at your side. The crease that forms indicates your natural waistline, directly above the belly button and below the ribcage." ( which, for those of us "gentlemen of substance", is the top of our "love handles")

    2) measurement around the largest part of your backside, is the "Hips" ( as opposed to your waist measurement, above)
