 VA Member Since: 08/23/01 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/3/12 9:49 pm Murphy's Law. I am the same way; loosing weight top down and I am an apple shape. There are other areas I would prefer to go first--like my gut and butt! Oh well, a loss is a loss and I'll take it.

 CA Member Since: 04/22/11 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/4/12 2:20 am I am losing weight it weird places first. It has never been this way any other time I have lost weight. I have lost weight 50 million times and always lose from my tummy area first ( my tummy is the smallest area and my hips and thighs are the biggest). My shouldars, arm pits, butt and forearms have gotten flat/thin/ugly. I have no suggestions for you but wanted you to know you are not alone =) |

 Charlotte, NC Member Since: 12/08/10 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/4/12 7:34 am It's the first area to gain and the last area to lose. And that is just the cold hard truth... Sigh  |

 Member Since: 02/10/08 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/4/12 8:42 am I am the same way... my arms, legs and face are all good now... just stomach area left.... Whenever I have lost weight the stomach seems last to go... I have done tons of research in the past and it seems to come down to genetics where your body stores the fats. If you get a suggestion that works please share it on the main postings... I would love to try something that actually works...    |

 Member Since: 05/15/04 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/4/12 9:17 am Last Edit: 2/4/12 9:19 am Hi! I wonder if you have taken your measurements? It might actually be coming off there too, but it may just be harder to tell for some reason? For me it feels like I am *only* losing in my butt and waist, and I still feel like my arms and shoulders and chest are like they were before. They aren't of course, they are smaller, but I am not zooming through the sizes of tops like I have been in pants. In November I was a 24W, and the other day I bought a 16W in jeans. I mean WTH?! Tops though I am still definitely an 18/20W. The whole experience is kind of weird, but the only thing we are in control of is our eating and our exercising -- everything else is just going to happen as it happens! Good luck!   Pre-op Month: -26lbs Month 1: -14lbs Month 2: -9lbs Month 3: -8lbs |
