Weird places you notice fat loss?

I've been noticing while losing this first ten pounds that my body is changing shape in interesting ways. I have noticed my shin bones are more predominant, and my knees feel more boney. I've also noticed that the mushy, chunky line of fat down either side of my spine has all but disappeared all the way down my back.

I don't expect to start seeing major changes in my butt, thighs, stomach any time soon, and I wasn't suprised to see a visible change in my face, but every now and then I'll look down or feel a spot and say, "wait a tick .. that's quite toned compared to a couple months ago!"


Where have you noticed the strange 'first loss' taking place?

    The first place I really noticed toning up was my stomach. I still have a long way to go, but it's nice to be able to see some progress.
  • my feet, i went down half a shoe size. i think a lot of it was water retention...but it was unexpected. and made me smile!!

  • Me too, I have been noticing little things and I love it! I can actually see my ankles, I can see the veins in my feet! I can actually see my chin. My shirts hang lower since my shoulders and back have slimmed down. ^_^

    a friend of mine who is a pe teacher and really into fitness told me you start losing weight on the last part you gained it. This kind of upset me since the first place I noticed gaining it was my stomach so if what she says is true I will lose that area last!

    I think I have noticed it mostly in my lower legs, my husband is calling me bird legs again!

    i keep losing weigt in my fingers. before i joined mfp my ring size was a 7 and it would be tough to slide that on and off. few weeks into my weightloss journey i had to get my engagement ring resized to a 6. Now my engagement ring is too big and i'm scared its going to slip off my finger lol time to get it resized again!

  • Wow! Funny you asked.

    I first noticed in my face/neck; I've lost a shoe size, from 10 to 9. Lately, I'm noticing I have a waistline. Belly is shrinking; yet I have a ways to go :smile:

    my fingers are slimmer and my rings spin around now instead of leaving imprints where they were too tight. :D

    I seem to lose in my chest and around my clavicles first and then the rest follows.

    At least that's what I notice first.

    My feet and fingers! Also, the very top of my thighs. At the very top there's a triangle of a gap which never used to be there!

    My fingers. My thumb ring is looser. Today I felt a bone on the side of my body... I'm not sure yet, but I think it's a hip bone or something... Gonna get it checked out.... lol pray for me guys.... I might actually have hips coming out... I'm just use to using my love handles as my hips.
