The first place I lost was in my face (the chubby cheeks, etc). The last place I'll be losing weight is in my belly -- it's really my only chubby zone left. I seem to lose weight from the very bottom (ankles/calves) up and from the top (face/chin) down. I'm at the point now though where I can see a real difference in my upper abs and hips, so the weight loss is s..l..o..w..l..y moving its way toward my belly from both ends .
My face and my bust first. The middle is slow to come off. I once got very thin and was disappointed to find out I was flat chested and had breech thighs which wouldn't go away (if only they had had lipsuction then ). So I had to stick with the A-line skirts. There are some parts of our bodies that just won't go away and we have to learn to live with them or spend a bundle on plastic surgery.
LOL...I forgot to mention my fingers! I've always had really short, chunky fingers. And they've only very recently (in the last 2 weeks or so) started to slim down. I can't wear any of my rings anymore because they slide right off .

I definitely lost my breasts first... which I hate to lose with a passion and my face/neck/collarbone areas. The last are my hips and thighs, they like to stick around.
I just started tracking measurements for the first time. This week I lost half an inch from my chest and thighs and nothing from my hips or waist. Kind of frustrating really, I feel like I am looking more and more like a potato with toothpick legs and arms ;-)
When I gained weight it sort of just spread out all over, no particular area (except my calves were mercifully spared). I've lost pretty much all over as well except that percentage wise, I've lost a LOT more inches in my arms than anywhere else and the weight I gained in my breasts doesn't seem to be going away (YAY!). There's still at least 5-7 lbs of pure de old fat hanging on from approx my belly button down to about 3" down my thighs (eww). I've gotten quite thin except for that 10" in the middle.

And for those people that finally got to their weight loss goal.. did your stubborn spot finally melt away?
Not yet, I lowered my goal from 120 to 115 because of the jiggle in my middle. Now keep in mind, it isn't reeeaaaalllyyy that bad (and it's tons better than it was)...just not what I ultimately want to look like.
I'm noticing that my pants fit better. Losing it around the waist and some off the tummy but can't really see a change but the jeans say otherwise. Hopefully, I won't lose much of my breasts. Well, only if it meant they would tone up. I'm with ya peppahmint. I would like to lose 20 to 25 pounds by Christmas. I wanna get under the 200 mark. Let's do it.
but hips & glutes hold onto the weight with a deathgrip.
LOL, Firmgirl. "Deathgrip." Hee hee...I have this mental image of hips and glutes holding on for dear life...funny. My belly's like that. It's in this for the long haul. I think in the end I'll do what Julia did and actual shift my goal weight to 125 - 130 because my belly is very attached to me . Pun intended.
Hi ya'll! I lose weight in my face first. But my butt seems to call for back up if it starts getting smaller! I hope that pretty soon there won't be anymore back up left!
Where do you lose weight first? And last.
Curious to see what everyone else's is!
