Just as the title states, I want to know where it is that you lose or gain your fat first most noticeably.
I know that my body is changing when I notice these areas.

For me, it's definitely my face and inner thighs!

    My primary fat stores are my belly as it is with many, if not most people...so that's first on and last off. When I was losing I lost in my face and other extremities first...I didn't start getting into my belly fat until I was a good 20 - 30 Lbs down.

    I always lose in my upper body first, but gain in the hips and thighs.

    I must be a special snow flake! I lost it all in my torso so far. the plus side, my stomach has shrunk a whole lot. the down side, so have my boobies.

    (I don't really think I'm a special snow flake... I just always wanted to say that! haha)

    ETA: darn, someone beat me to the upperbody loss

    When I was really heavy, I lost first in my face/upper body. My weight loss is so slow now I can't really tell BUT if I get off track, I notice it first in my belly (pants tight).

    I lose it first in my face. So I waddle around looking kinda scary with this HUGE body and little head. :(

    My legs, hands and feet were earliest but I'm
    still troubled with my middle above the belly
    and my upper/inner arms. Despite the fitness
    I do, it's true you really can't target.

    My legs and bum are always first, when I really pushed myself I noticed it in my neck too... also in my chest area

    The first place I always notice a loss, is my waist line just above my belly button, then it spreads all over, but it seems when I gain it's all in my thighs and hips... I can only hope that someday I'll see a successful reversal in my hip area!

    Legs, hips, butt first . . . . then the rib cage and up . . . . . my stomach likes to hold out, but it's usually the last to give out.

    Last place I gained was my stomach, and that was the first place I lost, not all of it, but the last amount I gained, then it went on through all the other areas I gained in reverse order, and it keeps doing that as time goes on. You don't gain weight all in one spot, it is all over, so you lose it all over, in reverse order that you gained it, at least it is for me.

    My arms! I already have little arms. Why, oh, why can't it be my thighs, hips, and stomach?!

    I lose weight first on my face, chest, and shoulders/arms. Then my legs/thighs. I've never managed to lose weight off my belly/hips, but I'm trying to change that!
