Let me know how the increased protein and calories work for you I would take your measurements and then do so in another 4 weeks if you dont see progress we can tweak things with the carb cycling I mentioned.

Go with a tape measure. Here are some basic guidelines when measuring yourself for fat loss:
1. Bust: Don't squish yourself -- measure all the way around your bust and back right at your nipple line, and make sure the tape measure is not lower.
2. Chest: Measure under your breasts but as high up as you can go, keeping the tape measure parallel to this line when you reach it around your back.
3. Waist: Measure wherever it is the smallest (if you have "no waist" go around yourself right at the navel line).
4. Hips: Measure at the very biggest part -- even if that is so low that you are almost on the top of your thighs.
5. Midway: Measure midway between the very biggest part of your hips and your waist.
6. Thighs: Measure wherever they are the biggest.
7. Knees: Measure right above the knee.
8. Calves: Measure wherever they are the biggest.
9. Upper arm: Measure wherever they are biggest above your elbows.
10. Forearms: Measure wherever they are biggest below your elbows.

K, so I got three measuring tapes so if I lose one, it's ok.
I did however forget to bring the printout with me over the wkend.
I just put it in my bag though, and I'll do it tonight.
One thing I do know is that I'm boobier than I thought. I've been wearing a bra that's too small (!) First thing I did was measure the girls and they are 36, not 34. Hurray!

LOL congrats on the boobies 
Goals are great to have and I don't want to burst your bubble but being selective on where the inches are lost might not be the greatest thing. The measurments are there to see the progress that a scale may not show cause you gain muscle but drop fat.
Gotcha, thanks, I'll revise that to be...
Goals:
To see progress in fat loss
And gain muscle
