Once again (insert man hate here)...lol

I have lost most of my weight in my arms and legs. The 2 places I prolly needed the least to lose since I carry all my weight in my midsection. My waist has gone down alot but I wish it would have started there.

I lost weight in my face and shoulders 1st. I know weird places but I've never had a big butt or boobs. In fact my boobs look bigger now that my gut is not in the way.

I first lost off my face, neck shoulders then waist and now its the butt. Seems to have started at the top and gravity is bringing the weight loss down bit by bit to the butt.

The first thing that I noticed was my double chin had dissapeared (thank goodness!) and I lost weight in my upper waist right under my boobs. Gave me back a curvier sillouhette instead of being boxy.

The one thing it did do was make my boobs look bigger... I haven't lost any boobage and I'll probably regret this down the line but I wish my boobs would shrink some. Not all the way gone but they're killin' my back, here!

I lost it everywhere except my boobs. Those stayed big until I lost the last 10 pounds. Now they're gone too. Thank God for padded push-up bras.

The thing is, I was actually contemplating breast reduction. Glad I waited. Now I need an augmentation!

To be perfectly honest I do not see the weight gone at all. But, I would have to say that the biggest change I feel is my butt. It hurts all the flippin time now. I mean it's starting to wake me up at night if I'm on my back.

Boobs went south and the butt bone stabs the seat. Man, that bathtub hurts! Heck, I look like a pin has been poked in me all over and the air let out. lol
