Okay, I have only lost 11lbs so far so I can't tell in my clothes. But I do know where I lost it. In my feet and fingers!!! My shoes, flip flops, are very loose. I can barely keep them on and my rings are just falling off of me. What a great place to see the first signs of weight loss, huh?? It couldn't show in my butt or belly, noooooooooooo, it had to be my feet and fingers. Oh, well, I'll take it. The rest of my body is sure to follow,,,,,,,,I hope!!:laugh:

  • Hey, you could always be a hand model!
    Wasn't that a Seinfield episode?
  • I think I've lost a bit in my feet too, my shoes aren't so tight anymore. I'm sure the rest of you will follow suit. i'd like to lose it in my cankles (calfs/ankles) so I can wear high boots. Lol Keep up the good work!

    Yeah, I guess I could. I never thought of that one. Lord knows, that's the ONLY thing I could model at this point!!!!

    Well, that's better than losing it from your boobs. That's where I lost my 7 pounds. Oh well, maybe that's not so bad. They were too big anyway. :laugh:

    Don't really have much to work with in that department so I hope I don't lose all of the girls!!!! I think I'll have a little talk with the lovely ladies this evening and tell them I don't want them to go. Thanks for the reminder!!!!:bigsmile:

    About 12 years ago I lost a lot of weight (put it all back on now plus more) anyway I remember someone asking me if I had a breast reduction. Aaaggghhh WHAT!!! I didn't really realize that I was losing so much at the time but that was when I really took notice. Now that I am doing this healthily I can not wait for someone to notice my shrinking breasts lol I guess it all comes off our bodies in different ways but I hope it stays on my hands at least until I have money for a ring resizement. Congrats to you

    All humor aside, unfortunately weight loss starts in the extremeties first and never where we want it to but I'm sure you all knew that.

    I can remember when I lost the first few pounds and when I was in the shower my rings went flying around the stall after I put shampoo in my hair. Soap in my eyes from the shampoo and trying not to move around too much for fear I'd hurt my foot if I stepped on them.

    Great way to present the feelings we all have:laugh:
  • This is really funny because I've been hoping to lose weight in my fingers!!! My wedding ring hasn't fit me in quite some time and I'm just dying to be able to wear it again... After a month of working out I tried my rings over the weekend and no luck....I got them on and it took a long time to get them off!!!

    so what's your secret? Finger exercises?

    I can totally relate to you. When I orginally lost a lot of my weight and I slipped into my favourite wedges, I was like...whoa, wait a second, it feels loose and right and my feet aren't hurting. I went down an entire shoe size.

    That's too funny. My boyfriend was looking at my feet the other night and he said that they looked thinner!:laugh:

    Well, it sucks that you lost it first from a place other then your "problem" areas, but just for your own informational purposes, we loose fat essentially in the order we put it on. this is because your body grabs energy FIFO (first in first out) because that is the easiest to use up, so the order would be like this, food we recently ate, new fat, and then either "old fat" or new muscle, depending on which takes less energy to convert. That may sound a little disheartening, but at least you know that the weight is comming off. And seeing this means at least that what your doing is working. EVENTUALLY your body will get to the older deposits of fat, it may take a while, but it will get there. Hang in there!
