Stubborn Stomach

Has anyone experienced while you were losing weight that your stomach/waist was the last thing you lost? My husband says he can tell the difference in my legs and back. I want my face to thin out and my tummy to shrink so I can see that I am getting to a smaller clothes size.

Typically wt is lost "north to south". Facial area are typically note by most people or their friends, as it's "up front" and not covered with clothing.  Then breast, then abodomen, rear, and legs typically last. But family genetics may play with this norm, as people with a strong family history of a certain body type, thick legs, etc.  may be different.  DAVE

Dave provided you with a good answer.  My stomach is finally decreasing after losing 100 lbs.  Of course exercise would help even more.

Congrats on your success to date.

Thanks for the information. I want my stomach to go first, I think my weight loss would be more visible to me..

Ms M, my "spare tire" was the first thing to deflate. That was new for me. Throughout my weight loss history, the first place I lost was my bustline (which ain't big enough to begin with lol). Believe me, that has reduced too. But I am so happy the spare tire is going.

My face definitely got thinner early on too. All my friends commented on it.

I know you're going to be so happy with your results! I wish you so much happiness!

And for me, I lost north to south and south to north at the same time - but the "rings of Saturn" around the equator were the last to go! I was very funny looking for a while, LOL!

Hang in there - it'll all shrink eventually.
