Arms bigger

I guess my weight has re-distributed.  My arms are bigger this winter.  I have several Medium sweaters that are too tight in the arms.  I know I wore them last year.  I had my arms done 1/2008.  A little flab was removed above the elbows.  The sweaters are too tight on the entire arm.

Really, I do not mind wearing Large sweaters.  It is interesting how this has happened  I have not been able to exercise since I had a hysterectomy in November.  Before the surgery I was mostly walking.

Very interesting.  I guess I had heard about weight redistributing but not like that.  Maybe your sweaters shrunk????

Mine has distributed too and I do notice a little tightness in my arms too.  I thought it was from lifting babies but maybe not  The good distribution has been in my boobs...LOL.

My weight constantly shifts around. I've been at goal for 1.5 years and it's still shifting.

I'm starting to wonder if this is normal. Not ever having been a normal person when it comes to weight, I just don't know.

In reply to all of you, I failed to tell you, I will be 66 this month.  This could be some age related.  Also my face seems to be sagging more, too.  I HATE aging.  

When I first lost weight, it came off my bottom.  My husband and I were both amazed.  I gained about 15 pounds a while back and have since lost most of it, but it showed up in my bottom first.  My husband says I look good.

Hi Ruby!  I know wht you mean!!  I've gained some weight, but I'm still the same pants size.  But this winter I notice that my Small sweaters don't quite fit like they did last year! 

The first place I noticed my "re distribution" was in my legs/thighs.  I was Almost in a size 2, but when buttoned they were just too snug to be comfortable.  Figured I would soon be in them....never got there!  I noticed when I went to try them on a few months later, I could barely get them up over my thighs!!!  My legs have always been mind bender too me!  I think my legs are still fat, even though I've got a couple of girls at work that argue they are not (even went so far as to measure with one of them)! 

There are never any problems, only solutions.  quoted by a dear and special friend!!!

My stats:
Starting weight 234 lbs    Height 5 ft 6 in
Goal in 7 months (127 lbs)
Currently: 120-123 lbs
Tops Small   Bottoms size 2!!!!

Maybe when you gained the weight, alot of it was in your arms, but when you lost it, you lost most of it from your bottom. I know that I gain on my lower half first and I lose on my upper half first.
