Where does it come off first

I was wondering when we lose weight what part of the body loses it first, is it different for everyone?

For me people say wow you can really tell in your face and neck that you have lost weight! Yesterday I was told you can now tell in your shoulders, love hearing that, but when does it get to the stomach?? LOL thats where I want it gone from the most!?

It's different for everyone, but a lot of people notice they lose in their extremities before their core, and some people kind of "melt downward," losing from the top down (yay gravity). Weight loss in your face and neck also tends to be more noticeable since your stomach is usually covered with clothes.

I am SURE it is different for everyone!  I seem to have a feeling our "trouble" spots will always be our trouble spots....but maybe I am wrong.  I am still in the losing phase ;)

I have lost 90 pounds, pretty much from all over, but yes, my trouble spots before are still the same ones I see in the mirror. I have the same shape everywhere, just smaller and saggier now.

I have always carried most of my weight in my bellow. Always had skinny legs. Now I have skinnier legs and still a belly. I've got 25 lbs or so to go, hopefully it'll finally go away. Not much left on legs.

I'm the same, see it in my face/neck the most. Seems like I'm one of those melting downward people... And whatever melts seend to settle in my arms (holy bat wings!) 

I'd love to see more disappearing in the hips... I can live with a stomach.

Mine started at the face then went downward. Then it kinda "settled" in my bra region. Holy Moley what a difference. 52DDD (overflowing) to a 34 C (not so overflowing :/)

I can tell in my belly area. But most people say my face and neck are skinnier I can't really tell it.
