Body measurements
The scale doesn't show everything. Log your waist, chest, hips, arms, thighs, and neck next to your weigh-ins, and see each one change over time. Measurements are part of Premium. Weigh-ins, height, and BMI stay free.

Learn where to measure
On the Progress tab, tap Body weight, then How to measure on the Measurements card. In short:
Waist: at your belly button. Breathe out normally and measure before you suck in.
Chest: around the fullest part, under your armpits, arms down.
Hips: around the widest part of your butt, feet together.
Arms: the biggest part of your upper arm, relaxed at your side.
Thighs: the biggest part of one thigh, just under your glutes, standing.
Neck: just below your Adam's apple, looking straight ahead.
Use a soft tape, snug but not pressing in, and keep it level all the way around. Measure the same arm and leg each time, at the same time of day. Every 2 to 4 weeks is plenty.
