UM... yes! Thank you!!! My stomach is going down... UH, I need my HINEY (sp?) to go down!! I still cannot get into a smaller size pants! Although I constantly need a belt, that annoys me! Glad I'm not the only one!

Re: Anyone else notice...

This may sound dumb, but speaking of arms... LOL - I'm going to make myself look like an a$$ right now... my arms are NOT huge, are they toned? NO. But anyway, I've lost a few pounds... Is it possible that my arms (mainly under) will seem more FAT?? Or lets say flubbery?? Or do you think it's my imagination! FH thinks I'm NUTS!

Re: Anyone else notice...

My 'girls' always seem to get smaller when I lose weight. Its so sad, FH wants to take out a missing report on them

I am a nutcase about my arms, or under my arms to be specfic. I am doing weights (Buff Brides) 3x a week to get rid of the flabby under my arms. They are def. getting better, but I still practice waving in the bathroom mirror to see if my arms look flabby. FH thinks I am nuts.

I just lost 57 pounds on WW, and it took a good 6-8 months for people to really notice, and my chest looks even more pronounced!(UGH!) Not that it a bad thing, but I have a big chest that I am self concisious of. (DD) I am going to get a personal trainer to get rid of the flab I still have in my stomach, I already spoke with her and she said that a lot of cardio work is needed to get rid of it. (Not looking forward to it, but I am so out of shape now that I lost weight) . I still want to lose another 20 or so pounds before the wedding. It is completely normal to notice the weight coming off first where you do not need it the most.

Re: Anyone else notice...

Me too! I was so psyched when I lost about 9 lbs last fall. I had ordered my dress down a size (I was between 2 sizes) and when I went to try it on, when it came in, not only did it fit, but it was BIG on me! Thankfully big in the waist/tummy area (YAY!) but also big in the chest area (BOO...I can't afford to lose from there!!). FH was happy for me that I lost weight but wanted to know why I had to lose it from THERE of all places. I want to know too!! Bleagh. Oh well, at least I'm not alone, I see.
