What body part is the last

to lose?

Mine is my face and I know it discourages, frustrates me. :( My mom's side, you can be 100# and you *will* have a double chin. Period. Mine is quite... round. LOL. My sister had weight issues (too thin b/c of the double chin) all her life. She passed in 2010. Just wondering if I am alone...

    My double chin doesn't seem to be going away as fast as I want either. I think I would feel soooo much better about my weight loss if when I looked in the mirror I didn't see it all the time. Oh well, hopefully it will go soon. All my clothes are fitting better and I have even bought a few things that are smaller. I'm on my way, good luck to you too.

    I wish I could get past the double chin and say "hey! maybe it is working a little!". I found my shirt fit better after doing the wii for a week... and then I stopped. :/ I really need to stop using my chin (which is why I do not allow photos of myself --can not remember the last time one was taken of me) as a reason.

    Mine is the abdomen...in particular, the dang flap from my pregnancies and c-sections. Working on it, but it's definitely frustrating!

    This is me too. I lost like 50 lbs a few years ago, but this part would not change.

    Also, I had this exercise book that had an exercise where you just lift your head up and down, extending the chin, maybe that's supposed to help? I don't do it much, but I don't have a completely double chin yet, so maybe?

    Mine is my thighs. I have always had big legs and it seems no matter what I lose this part of my body refuses to shrink.

    Well so far, it's double chin, belly, and arms. But I still have 30lbs to go...

    Arms for me.

    I've notice that I have gotten smaller in the hips/love handels area and chin. But my arms are still flabby like those dreaded chicken wings! The weird thing is, I mainly have been focusing on my arms and shoulders. Ugh!

    I know people skinnier than twigs with a saggy chin. So it's definitely not something you can 100% control with diet. Sorry to hear about your sister. My face is probably always going to be round and puffy! It's in my genes :) Just as long as my booty is not always round and puffy lol!

    My stomach. I have never had a flat stomach because all of my weight has been in my tummy :sad: Face is the first place I lose it.

    Oh god, do I know this problem. For me it's not the chin but the thighs and cankles. I've always had big, wobbly thighs and huge cankles, even when I was thinner. To make matters worse, I have very short legs, and the fat makes them look even stumpier *rolls eyes*.

    Oh well. We can't all look "perfect", right? ;)

    She was like 81 pounds at my wedding and her doctors was about to hospitalize her. She did not feel thin nor look thin to herself. :(


    My is not sagging at the moment. I probably would be ok with a saggy chin. In is just out there. Full. I do not like. I was looking at photos between having my 2 kids (10 months apart), what a difference in my face! I know it will never go fully away, but to go down would be nice.
