As I've been browsing the forums, I've noticed some ladies saying that their shoe size has gone down with weight loss or their rings are falling off their fingers. So I was wondering if anyone wanted to share some weird places on your body that you never expected would change that much but have? Or that you're just like "Wow that's odd!!"
my ears!!!! my glasses started falling off my head!
Love this! I haven't lost much but where I've lost it first is in my ankles, tops of my feet, wrists (not hands/fingers), and neck. I didn't expect them to get as "skinny" looking so quickly!
Not so much a weird place but I was surprised that one thing that happened was that all my shirts became way too low cut as I lost weight! I was also surprised how much my band size went down but my cup size on bras hasn't changed much at all.
Oh, here's one! My knees! They are so bony now and it's actually uncomfortable to sleep on my side at night without a pillow in between them.
My tailbone! I used to be able to do stretches lying on my back on nothing more than the rug, and now the rug plus a yoga mat is still uncomfortable. I don't think it took much weight to go from the first point to the second, either.
I'm starting to be able to get back into my nice calf or knee high boots, although these days I'm not so good at walking on heels, annoyingly.
And my shoes are suddenly looser as well. Time to fish out those insoles which I should be wearing anyway due to having flat feet. Of course, I haven't a clue where they are.
I definitely think I've lost a bit from my fingers. Also, I now have twin dips in the tops of my thighs where the weight seems to be coming off (as opposed from the insides, which still cause me a bit of chub rub).

OMG! I noticed this last weekend when the hubs and I were camping! A shirt that used to fit just fine was suddenly giving everyone a free peep show every time I leaned over. I knew the girls were getting smaller but I had never given a thought to how that would change the way some of my shirts fit. OOPS!
Sounds weird but my butt....I always looked at women with incredibly flat rear ends and thanked God that my rear end was "plumper." Now that the weight is starting to go away, my BUTT is shrinking abnormally faster than everywhere else. It looks especially weird because my hips aren't keeping up. Now I have the flat rear end shape that I always talked about. To think all this time I had the same body shape under all of my extra "fluff." Who knew??
I've been losing weight pretty uniformly, but I'd have to say that the weight lost at my ankles is annoying. All of my socks fit okay on the foot, but slide off my ankles. My crew socks end up under my heels before I've walked a block.

Ah, this is great! I was going to post a thread asking if anyone losing weight had to get different glasses, but I thought it was silly. How could your temples get fat? But I suppose it wasn't that silly.
I have to get wide glasses and most of the styles are so masculine or boring. Luckily, I got a really nice purple pair last week.
I didn't think I was a high enough starting weight to lose weight in my feet. Apparently I was! I've only gone down a half size though, so I can still wear my shoes.
I just have to be careful with those slip on ones. I've nearly taken a spill going up the stairs at work!
