Has anyone else noticed that on Atkins in particular, you lose weight from the top down? Seriously, I've just been on it for two weeks and my body looks completely different. At this point I've lost about 8 pounds and my body looks different - I actually have a waist now - but have not lost much off my hips. Previously, the loss would have been distributed differently. Share your experience or knowledge about this, if anyone knows what I am talking about!

I have lost about 22lbs, and the loss is all over, hips, thighs, waist, bust, face. I noticed it first in my face and then in my hips, pants fit better, underwear doesn't go creeping any more either ha ha ha!

For me it doesn't matter what diet I'm on. I always lose first from the place I gained it last which for me is my face, followed by neck, shoulders, pitiful pancake boobs, lower legs, knees, thighs, caboose and finally last (but definitely NOT least), hips and waist.
