Misnagid is on a distinguished road
Default So where do you see weight loss first? And what's the last thing to go?

Everyone is telling me my face is much thinner.
I think my bustline is the last thing to get smaller, unfortunately.

My fingers for some strange reason. The rings were not fitting any more.

Default Re: So where do you see weight loss first? And what's the last thing to go?

I tend to lose weight in my stomach the most first. My face goes along with that. Then my butt and boobs tend to go next (darnit! lol) and of course my big trouble spots (arms and legs) go last. I haven't lost weight in a while, so it might be different this time. Even just losing 7 lbs so far I can tell my stomach doesn't stick out as much :P

Default Re: So where do you see weight loss first? And what's the last thing to go?

Ooh! Great question! For me, the face is always the last to start showing signs, which sucks, since it's the place I look to first. Boobs are usually the first to go. Bum and hips next - then I become less thick around the middle and "stocky" (a humbling term, and one of my least favorites). It's generally the thighs and "batwings" that lag behind the worst. So, MY "awkward stage" looks like this: Flat-chested and moon-faced, but shapely.

Default Re: So where do you see weight loss first? And what's the last thing to go?

I have noticed mine in this order -

Face
Back fat (thank god)
Back of my thighs (that extra roll that is under my butt)
Thighs - during the 14 days, I lost 3 inches off of my thighs)
Stomach

Waiting on my chest, arms and butt to catch up

Default Re: So where do you see weight loss first? And what's the last thing to go?

My rear end was the first to go. The annoying thing was, I didn't have much of a butt to start with. I hate the fact that I find it uncomfortable to sit on hard surfaces due to the lack of padding down there.

My multiple chins was the last to go. In fact I still have one extra left.

I have heard tell and from the descrptions it may be correct that losing fat is similar to melting snow .......... the thin areas melt first and the thicker areas take longer ....... hmmmmm
