Where did you notice the loss first?

[deleteme 176]

So, scale aside, what are some of the places you first noticed your weight-loss? Here's what I noticed first:

My calves got thinner

My face

And my upper arms (biceps)

Just recently I noticed my bra seemed a bit large. Sure enough, "the girls" have shrank significantly (thank God).

I really want to see more in my waist and hips now!

Tell me yours! I thought it was weird to lose in my calves first...haha!

I lost weight is my belly, "manboobie", face and funny enough in my "back-boobs"... I've lost weight in the past many times but never in my upper back !

I found the inches came off really fast with the lapband.

It is always nice to lose the "manboobie" and "back-boobs"! I've noticed a few changes on my back as well. Always nice to notice those things!

I noticed it in my face first.

My waist was the first to go. People noticed my face too, but I don't see it.

[Adrienne21 106]

my stomach and face was the first place and now my legs.

only 12 lbs so far but I notice my face looks thinner.

The place I notice it most of all is in the airplane.....all the seats on those planes sure are getting larger lately :-)

Ohhh, you meant on me.........My wife says she notices it most in my face and neck. I notice it in my belt. I had to keep closing it one more notch each week, to the point where I had to buy a new smaller belt. Now that new belt is one notch away from being too big too.

My face, waist, and boobs.

[LessLee 119]

Face for sure, hands - but that could be less swelling and boobs which I din't need to lose there..lol

I'm noticing it everywhere, but what I'm most surprised about is how small my wrists/forearms and ankles are. I guess being (really) fat meant I was retaining A LOT of Fluid.< /p>

Face and upper back .. Just bloating is go e I have Edema so my wrists ankles and feet were always puffy now not so much

My tushie and legs, thighs but can't get rid of belly. Pants sizes are not the same as when I weighed this weight several years ago. PA says it might be because of scar tissue from previous abdominal surgeries since 2006. He said I might have to have more surgery to remove the scar tissue. UGH! Manboobies are gross and may need uplift there too. UGH!
