Where did everyone see weight loss first?

I am seeing it in my hands. Maybe a little in my face...

I'd like some feedback on the places you saw weight loss first in this WOE.

In my waist. My pants started getting baggy, and even now I've lost more percentage of inches in my waist measurement than anywhere else on my body.

I tend to lose all over at the same time, so I never noticed loss in any one place in particular.

Coming down from big numbers, I have to say that I lost it all over at first. It was not until I got below 200, that I actually started to see a distinct waist and my bust shrank a lot!!

My feet got smaller too...as did my fingers as I can wear rings now that I had not worn in 20 years.

However, I've still got a very ample butt!!

My face, first. That's what everyone noticed.

Then my waist and hips and bottom & arms.

Now, it's hard to tell - maybe because I haven't lost much in the past 2 months

So... did anyone "Lose Belly Fat First". I did SBD all last summer, and I did lose belly fat, but just not first. Face and boobs were first.

Oh, I've definitely lost belly fat. And arm fat and leg fat and back fat and let's not even mention the loss of cleveage!

My mom's pretty upset with me, of all the yrs she had dieted she has never been able to really lose her belly. She just looks at me and goes, "How the hell are you doing that!??".

I feel like I am shrinking in general...like someone is shaving a very thin layer off of me very slow. Every day has been a surprise as to what will fit from my closet, but I refuse to buy new clothes until I am in the 210s as I have an entire closet of clothes I could wear when I was between 150 and 180. It would be such a waist of money.

Boobs and butt, and I'm delighted

This time last year I was heading into the winter with all my pants either too tight (making me very cranky) or just not fitting at all. Now I'm finding more and more stuff in my closet that suddenly fits again.

Still have a long way to go though............

I think from my waist first. That was before I started working out..now Im working out Im noticing it from my legs and bum. And my boobs, which is so not the bestest thing in the world..heavy Im really ample and thin Im not so much. ;p

Its really funny but in the last 3 weeks or so, when Ive only lost like 5 lbs and nothing for the last 2*kicks that stall* people at work are noticing my weight loss much more. I guess its the gym thing kicking in.
