Where does weight loss show first?

What I mean is, when you lose weight, where does it start showing first? I've heard that it shows in your face first. I'm just curious and figured I'd give it a shot and see if anyone knows.

    It seems pretty individual.
    Some people see it in the face, some in the chest, some in the butt, some in the tummy... It all depends on the individual.
    I see it in my waist and tummy first, but a few weeks ago a friend noticed cus she said my face looked skinnier. haha

    My butt. lol I have no butt but I lose whatever I have there, then my face. I've been dieting a month or so and lost over 10 pounds. But I think it shows everywhere really, in little ways!

    It is different for everyone. I lost weight in my face first but my friend was the exact opposite. She lost from her waist first and her face was one of the last places that was noticable.

    I think you see it in the face first due to the dietary changes. You reduce the sodium and junk, and the swelling goes out of your face.

    As far as actual weight, last on, first off!

    Butt first. I have noticed that the puffiness in my eyes is decreased too and I have cheekbones again.

    I really don't know anymore, lol. I've lost 12lbs and NOBODY has noticed :(
    and im not that big to start with, i'm 5'11 and 183lbs, came down from 195
    I can't see the loss at all, and apparently neither can anyone else : (

    It takes some time for your new body to settle in. A lot of times people don't even notice my weight loss until I've stopped dieting for awhile.

    Face and arm pits (I know that's gross, but all of the sudden I noticed they weren't so squishy).

    Hmm, interesting replies all around. I especially liked the post that said they notice it in their smile. :smile:
    I have only lost 5lbs, but I feel like my face looks thinner.
    I mostly want it to show difference in my tummy! Argh! That's my main problem area, then my legs, then my arms in that order. I don't think my butt really changes too much, it's always been kinda curvy even when the rest of me was skinny, lol. And I don't think my boobs will go down too much, considering I've had C's since I was 11 or 12 (and actually thin)! They're a D now, but, honestly, I'd be glad to get rid of some of them! :wink:

    I noticed in my hips/waist first and then a few days ago I noticed my face was skinnier! :happy: Next to go should be butt and thighs :smile:

    I'm with you! I've lost 17.5 lbs, and I can't see a difference anywhere! No one's asked me if I've lost weight, yet, either. :ohwell:
    I keep hoping that there will come a day when all of a sudden it shows! :wink:

    The more fat I burn, the better my boobs look.





    +1 for being a guy.
