Measuring your waist without a measuring tape can be useful in various situations, such as when you don’t have one on hand or when you need to estimate your waist size quickly. There are several methods you can use to measure your waist without a measuring tape, each with its own level of accuracy.
One simple method is to use a string or piece of yarn. Wrap the string around your waist at the level where you would normally wear a belt. Mark the point where the string meets itself, then use a ruler or yardstick to measure the length of the string. This will give you your waist circumference.
