    Thighs and gut is the last to go and first to gain. Boobs always the first to go.

    Definitely my lower tummy area...I get the pouch haha and love handles. It's so annoying because when I gain a lot of weight I feel like I can't just wear a simple t-shirt because my stomach looks horrible under it!

    That's sooooo me! I look like I have a crumpled up paper bag under my shirt.

    5'3 I gain weight in my arms, thighs, belly and butt. I already have a big back side, but it gets really huge when I gain weight.

    My weight is always predominantly in my tummy to the point where I look pregnant. Now, yes, I gain weight all over, but the bulk of it is belly. Is that a shorty thing? Or do you gain your weight elsewhere?

    I think its more of a body type thing. for example, im not short ( 5"5) but i also gain in my tummy. I have never been overweight or anything but when i was not working out any weight i gained was in my lower stomach and boobs . thoes are really the only places i gain fat the most

    5'1 here I hold most of my weight in my hips, butt and thighs. But I've recently started gaining in my stomach probably because my bottom is so big!

    I used to gain all over, especially butt. Now, my butt is small, but I still have a tummy below the waist, my "menoopot."

    Mine seems to be belly and breasts. I am 5'3, 148lbs. When I was at 171 I was in a 38DD. Now I am in a 36DD and think that when I lose more I will have to go down to a 36D. The darn belly is the hardest place to lose I think.

    Lower belly and hips. Then boobs. Then arms, face, and thighs. My poor butt never gets any.

    Belly, hips and thighs. And of course, those are the places that take the longest to reduce. Cruel, cruel world :sad:

    I'm 5' and this last time I gained weight it all went to my stomach and my face. When I am completely inactive my butt goes flat and I get bloated through my entire stomach. My arms and legs have gained some too but no where near as much.

    I am an apple shape -- the bulk of my weight is on my belly and my arms. The excess weight definitely does *not* distribute itself in a flattering way at all!

    So, if I'm ever bloated, I look especially pregnant (even though I am not)... I've even had people ask me how far along I am. :(
    It's super depressing, but it's also not something anyone should ever ask! :)

    Oh, and for reference, I am 5'1".
