Unhappy 67 pounds gone but no inches

I've lost nearly 5 stones and I'm slightly confused and a bit exasperated.

My stomach which is where most of my weight is doesn't seem to be shrinking at all. I think I may of lost an inch but I didn't measure myself properly when I first started on Atkins.

My clothes are looser and keep falling down including my knickers lol! I've been told I look deflated and I feel like it, I have tons more energy so everything is going how it should be, but I thought there would of been more of a difference around my stomach because 67 pounds is a lot of weight to lose.

My legs and arms are and have always been like matchsticks, don't have much in way of a butt so where's the weight loss coming from?

Has anyone who's had over 100lbs to lose had the same experience? I didn't expect to see dramatic differences compared to those who aren't "morbidly obese" (I hate that term) but I'm slightly puzzled.
