I'm just wondering what was the first place you started noticing progress and the place that took the longest to show results.

For me, my abdomen and arms started showing results but my thighs...not so much.

What about y'all?

    Noticed a change and have continued to change everything...but these pesky upper arms. These upper arms are stubborn. Cardio, strength train, they don't care.
    Friends and family say they see a difference, but seriously, seriously, if I could just get them to decrease in size on the same pace as every other part of my body...but no.
    Nothing sleeveless for the foreseeable future.

    I'm pear shaped. It comes off my tummy first. My legs are last, calfs included. I hate it.

    I go top down. My chest (pecs andboobs) lean out first, along with shoulders, then it becomes more noticeable in my arms, midsection, and legs tend to be last.

    I lost a bit all over but I carry more weight around the middle so I think proportionately I see it there. Now I'm battling having it come off while leaving me a half decent shape ! I feel like I have the body equivalent of a hair cut that grows out bad. It started out alright, but It's gonna look really awkward till I get to my goal. Lol

    I've lost it in my legs first... then arms and face. My sad c section tummy has lost some for sure, but still has some catch up to do. It's the last area I am really needing to lose from, I'm happy with my other parts. Since we can't spot reduce I just need to keep on doing what I'm doing and hope I progress in that area.

    I was pretty lucky when I was losing as I lost fat pretty evenly.

    However, the first place I noticed was my back. I had a lot of back fat.

    The last place was my thighs.

    Definitely noticed it first in my face. Then my waist, but my hips not so much. Definitely hips and thighs have taken the longest to show progress, but that's OK because I know it's there!

    I'm another that loses fairly evenly which can make it hard to view myself objectively (I take photographs sometimes to help with this a little!). But first noticeable place was my waist and tummy and face. Now my thighs finally seem to be catching up. My boobs got really lopsided last week which was odd but I noticed this morning left boob has caught up again, ha!

    It's always boobs first for me. I wish I was one of those people who lost noticeably in their face first but I have stubborn babyfaced cheeks that refuse to go away! :tongue:

    My legs slimmed right up quickly, Tummy is taking its time. Im in an infinite loop it seems now, My body loses from everywhere bit stomach for a bit makign my belly seem large and then it loses from belly a bit and bloating pregnant belly goes away, And then it repeats taking from hips making me look pregnant...then belly....

    Boobs and booty sadly wont budge so its just a full on loop of hips and tummy now. guess thats good long term but for now sucks XD

    edit: just read up and realized i hadnt even noticed my back slimmed out fast to, Even tho i never thought i had much fat there intil it was gone XD

    My upper body and legs loose first. Last to go is my Buddha belly. I gain weight like a guy. It all deposits right into the gut. At my highest weight, I had several people ask me if I was pregnant. THAT was depressing!

    First was my face and neck, last has been my hips. I look tiny from the side (ribs and hip bones showing) but wide from the front or back because my chest (not boobs sadly just torso) and thighs are still big.

    It was visible on my upper torso first (abdomen & boobs). The one thing which surprised me how quickly and visibly I lost fat on my wrist and forearms (not at the very beginning but reasonably fast) - my wrists looked like they belonged to a smaller person than I was at that time.

    After that very first wave, my weight loss was coming from everywhere. Except my calves - those don't want to go down much until today.

    Around my rib cage first, last is gonna be my thighs. Butt is smaller, hips too, but I have pretty muscular thighs because I skate.

    Always lose the boobs first and thighs last. Since I started recomp I've lost inches from my waist and hips and thighs are still staying the same.

    Last time I lost 86lb and my thighs didn't start shrinking until I was down almost 50lb. It is frustrating.

    Others noticed in my face first. I felt it in my calves first. Was nearly 70 pounds down before the midsection started shrinking.

    Shoulders first, then a bit of all over followed by face, last, really dragging behind, tummy.

    I have been maintaining for years and can tell as soon as I get out of the shower if I am starting to gain. One glance in the mirror and the truth will out.
    Rarely ever need to weigh myself.

    Cheers, h.

    First place: Always the face!
    Last place: Everything seems to come off my body at the same pace. I just shrink all around. I guess my boobs would be last, since they don't really ever change.

    First: face
    Last: thighs

    Thighs put on weight first too...

    The first place I noticed it was my stomach, thankfully. Of course, it is also the last place to let go of that last bit of extra fat.

    I'm about one-third through my journey. I've really only noticed a difference on my belly and a bit from my butt. Fat toes and neck are still visible.
