is it just me?

I have been looking at other members weight loss pictures. Is it jus me or does WLS patients tend to lose weight from the head down. I have lost 42lbs since 7/20 and all i hear is i can see it in your face and shoulder and chest. I know other people who had WLS and it was the same way i first noticed it in their face. Why is this? 

Good question, Bruh.  I wish I knew what to tell ya.

Just last night I was at my monthly support group meeting and I swear almost every post-op WLS patient in atttendance was sporting a pair of 'Thankles' above their sandals.  Their Before/After pics show definite improvement but from the waist up.

Go figure. 

Thankles...LMAO....NONE OF THAT OVER HERE!!

As my great-aunt told me the other night in my Beyonce dress and 5 inch heels (she hasnt seen me since my first weeks home from surgery) if she had my legs she'd be running around the streets in a thong and heels...ROFLMAO...I darn near passed out!!

Go Auntie! It's ya birf-day! Get bizzy! Go Auntie!

Yep Thankles - Thick-azz Ankles!

LOL not true for me. I have been consistently loosing the same all over. I lose the same amount of inches from my bust, waist and hips each month. And I have noticed my waist getting really tiny. So I think it just depends on the person.

LOL its true...I was looking at myself in the mirror last night and its as if from the sholders up I'm just bones...thank God I have youth on my side or I'd be a lost cause.

Yeah, we literally melt . If you work out the bottom half, things will eventually even out.

Interesting observation - I don't think I lost weight in this way - my legs and ankles have stayed shapely the whole time - but I worked out regularly from the moment my doc released me to do so. 

My arms left me before my thighs did. Them suckas refused to go down until I kicked my workouts and running up.

This is sooooo true and I've observed the same thing with me!!  My thunder thighs won't go away.  Here's a picture that was taken on Saturday.
