Where do you gain most of your weight?

Mine goes right to my face, boobs, and midsection. Not that I like the other areas, but my face is the worst. I think a person's face kind of sets how the rest of their body looks. Even when I am not too much overweight, my chubby face plus any new fat making it chubbier makes me look way bigger overall.
My husband has gained quite a bit in his tummy, but his face remains rather slender so he really appears much thinner than he actually is. I am so jealous of people with thinner faces.

I gain most of my weight going to gourmet food truck parks.

I pretty much gain equally all over. However when I lost weight, everyone noticed it in my face first. Then the waist and so on.0
-
Thighs, calves, and belly. My legs are usually the first to gain and last to lose.0
-
Belly.0
-
Lower belly...ugh!0
-
I gain in my butt and thighs...yuck! When I lose...I lose from my face and upper body first!0
-

I gain it all on my legs, and a little on my lower tummy. My thighs are HUGE compared to the rest of me. It's the curse of my family, but luckily the rest of me stays pretty much in proportion.
BUt I know what you mean about faces. Recently I was looking over a couple of my old pictures (from when I was thinner) and I was totally stunned because I didn't think my face had changed with weight gain, but I've definitely got some jowls going on now. It's really made me more determined because until now I was counting on the fact that I could cover up the horrid thighs and belly. But my face is on full display so it's definitely time to change.0 -
Probably the face, butt, thighs... and now that I'm older, seems that my abs are holding onto it fiercely. That didn't used to be an issue really in my 20's.0

I often refer to myself as no butt and all gut! GRRRRRR
And the first place I lose it???? Yeah, my butt, legs, hips! I wish I could transfer from belly to butt, hips and legs.0 -
First the belly, then the face. SUX! :sad:0
-
MY *kitten* and hips! I have 54" hips w/ a 38" waist! UGH0

Boobs and hips/butt. I told a friend about that once, and he said those are probably the best places to gain... Still don't like gaining, though.0

Yeah in my younger days, my stomach didn't hold much fat but now it does. At least when I lay down it is FLAT LOL0 -
From the neck down it's fair game though I've always been able to maintain decent ankles (no cankles) and feet. My thighs, calves, stomach, buttocks, and upper arms are the worst though but I think my calves are half fat, half muscle as I was in band for 5 or so years which included a 7 1/2 mile parade march, band camp, and the joys of carrying a 15lb instrument in a 10lb case up and down school stairs 5 days a week.
That's not to say I don't have a bit of a double chin or that my face rounded out more as I gained weight but it's always been more normal than my body. You can see in my avatar image I have a decent double chin but I had my head tucked down in the photo so it poked out. (plus that photo's almost a year old, my face has slimmed significantly since)0 -
Face and midsection. Mostly the face. I've never really been big, but any kind of gain at all and my face bloats out. First place to lose the weight too.0
-
I gain equally all over so most people are surprised when I tell them how much I weigh because it is usually disguised well under loose clothing. However when I started losing weight I seem to be losing from my already A cup breasts :sad: and not from my waist. There goes bikini season.:grumble:0
-
Mine is all hips and thighs! I have been in a 16 pants but only a Medium shirt....talk about a pear shape!0
-
My stomach area, hips, *kitten* and thighs...when I loose it, it's my face and upper body that thins out first.0
-
My stomach-area then my *kitten* and then my thighs.... then the arms and face0
