    My husband says I carry my weight evenly everywhere, but I do notice the older I get, it seems to be going to my chest and stomach.:

    I'd say in my thighs and belly. I carry it in my butt too, but I've never had any complaints about that!!! :smile: I agree with what someone else said. My boobs were the first thing to go. Wahhhhhh!!!
  • My *kitten*. :laugh:
    Doesnt really go to my thighs. which I guess isn't a bad thing.
    considering I'm a petite girl and my thighs don't touch but when I gain weight it goes straight to my *kitten*.
    I do gain weight though mostly in my arms :sad:

    Booty booty booty booty rockin everywhere!

    LOL. Mrs new booty havent heard that for years! made me laugh today! thanks
  • Butt, thighs, and hips, but I have a tiny upper body with rail skinny arms, no shoulders or boobs. If you look at my upper and lower body separately you'd think elwe're two different people!

    Ditto. I hate it. :sad:

    I hate that I still hate it. :mad: I should have moved on by now. :angry: But I'm being honest. I'm not crazy about my shape and I never will be. But with the right clothes I can make myself look good.

    *kitten*, boobs, and thighs! I typically fit into a size 3-4 times smaller than someone else my weight.

    Mine is all stomach and back area by stomach. It sucks so bad!! My legs are getting in shape with the running I have been doing, but not much is happening with the belly!!
  • I look pretty proportioned most days, however, people of color tend to carry weight in their abdominal area. I am mixed and petite however, if i did not work out my weight would be my thighs because their muscular and I would struggle with muscular atrophy making them look larger and in my abdominals(color) especially at my age when women tend to lose testosterone and estrogen levels decrease. Europeans tend to be slim because they walk everywhere. I could go on hun. There are so many variables to this question. Its genetics, ethnic background and what we consume, and the hardness reality............age! hope this helped

    Ahah, I carry mine all over, pretty evenly. People who are the same height and weight as I am generally are about two to three sizes bigger.

    I probably carry more of it in my stomach now, but honestly, I am chubby all over. Maybe my nose...nah, that's chubby too! hahaha!:laugh:

    abdomen, unfortunately... but it has gotten much better.

    Used to always be my hips, rear, and thighs. After 9 kids and hitting my 40's, my rear, belly, back, and upper arms. Every time my weight goes down, the boobs are gone first. I fit 1 size on top and usually 2 sizes or more bigger on bottom. Ugh.
  • For me, it's my butt and thighs. On top, I look exactly the same as I did in middle school; my lower body carries the weight I've gained, and I just look disproportionate. :indifferent:

    I tend to carry MOST of my weight in my Boobs. I have such a weird body type because i'm only 5 foot tall, But before I gained all the weight from being pregnant + then birth control. I was ALLLL muscle so I was always "thick" but never fat. having since had my son and getting on b.c. I noticed my weight is in my back area, I guess because I have a naturally big butt, Some in my tummy, But MOST in my boobs! I'm seriously a GG :/

    This always fascinates me, on how peoples bodies, even though they cud be same height and weight, but look totally different sizes. I carry my weight in my upper chest and my stomach, which really annoys me, wud like to hear sum responses =)

    I carry in my stomach too but unfortunately not my upper chest! :)

    I am fairly proportionate when it comes to weight gain/loss, and I feel very blessed about that... but I still will always have a skinny neck and collar bones no matter how big or little I may be. I guess I am slightly more bottom heavy, and my hips seem to be the last place I lose, but I can't say I mind too much.
