Question Lopsided Weight Loss?
Today I noticed something that I thought was very odd, and I'm hoping some of you might be able to relate or have some experience to share. I'm a pear shape with the wonderful upper (smaller) and lower (bigger) stomach rolls, but I noticed that my lower stomach is lopsided. On one side of my belly button, my lower stomach sticks out significantly more than on the other side of my belly button. When I'm sitting up straight with my feet on the floor, there is about a 2-3 inch difference between the sides of my stomach. It's less noticeable when I'm standing, but there is still a difference. I know different people lose weight differently, but has anyone else experienced unsymmetrical weight loss? Does it even out at some point or can I look forward to being lopsided? I know... weird question but thanks for your help.

It's happening to me on my hips. My right hip has lost more weight than the left one and looks smaller. It's kind of weird...

Lopsided here too! My arms are more than an inch different in size, my lower stomach on the left is much larger than the right and one of my legs looks more toned than the other. I do whole-body exercises and I don't understand how or why this is happening, but I am sure it will even out. It's annoying and slightly embarrassing though. I'm glad no one is seeing me naked right now!

Yep! My upper stomach is doing that - one side of my belly button is smaller than the other, and it sort of has a lopsided look. Too weird! It has gotten better with the last ten pounds I lost, so don't give up hope!

My mom dieted most of my childhood, and I remember her being lopsided for months at a time before things evened out.
