    My waist, back, and legs (which were already the smallest parts of my body). My butt will not leave and since my back is significantly smaller it makes my butt look even bigger. *sigh*
  • My arms, upper abdomen, and chest (which, I don't have much to begin with!! haha) went first... then a little thighs. Still working on the "pooch" lol

    My first was always my face and my chest but now after breast cancer and no boobs... I am hoping the belly goes first since there is no boobs to go , belly was always last to go ....:smile:

    I think with women they notice it in their chest, arms, and stomachs first due to the fact that genetically we are more likely to carry subcutaneous fat (the kind around the hips and legs).
    Men typically lose a lot of weight in their legs and waists, while still holding weight in their upper bodies because genetically they are more likely to carry visceral fat (the kind around the arms and abdomen).

    Good news? Visceral fat is linked to heart disease and higher risk for other diseases, while subcutaneous fat is more protective. We gotta be prepared for childbirth somehow!

    For me? Totally lost weight in the arms and stomach, including the "muffin top." Wait, what muffin top? :P It's a shame, though.. my butt is looking quite sad while my hips are still as voluptuous as ever. -sigh-

    My bum...which is unfortunate, as I hardly have any. :(
    If I could only lose in two areas it would be my belly (I've got the PCOS belly which is my nemesis) and face - I'm relatively happy with the rest of me.

    When I first started losing, I lost weight all over. Mostly because I was so fat all over. :laugh: I noticed the most inches lost in my middle, thighs, and face. I don't have very large boobs so I haven't noticed much of a change although when I measure, I've lost an inch or so there too. :tongue:
