losing weight from first. the reason i ask is that a friend of mine told me that it looks as if im losing weight b/c my face looked thinner. i had heard that a person starts losing weight from the top to the bottom. has anyone heard of this.

I lose it from my face first too -- now if only that hereditary "weak chin" would somehow shape up! ;-)

That would be good for me, I would like my face to thin out...

When I did other diets, it was my face where I (and friends) noticed it first. With the SBD, it's definitly my tummy, my breasts and my back. I guess basically my torso. :) I just noticed my thighs and arms getting slimmer as well. Yay, finally! But the first two weeks, the weight dropped right off my tummy. I went down a size in my jeans in like a week and a half.

You ladies make me laugh :) It is so nice to read other people griping about their body types too :)

I have the opposite problem and have no hips to speak of! It is not so fun, so I am pretty much one solid piece of chub from my thighs all the way up :(

I totally noticed during Phase 1 that the fat melted away from my tummy, yepee! I have noticed my boobs getting smaller, but I have been doing lots and lots of strength training (chest press, chest fly) to make sure they don't sag and the added muscle helps them out too :)

Aaron, my hubby, has lost a lot of his weight in his face/neck area and especially his chest and that layer below the chest on men. That is pretty much gone now and as soon as that is down I am trying to tell him then his tummy will go too. I just want the stuff closest to his heart to go down and that seems to be whats going :)

No matter what our bodies types are and where we are losing it the best part is, WE ARE LOSING IT :) I can't wait for it to all be gone.
