Apple Shape People

[VGB 130]

I have a concern. Before I grew out of control I was a brick house, now I am more like an apartment building! I want to know if you were an apple shape person before the surgery do you lose weight everywhere except your legs? My legs are fine! Please chime in!

I am the textbook definition of "apple shaped." When I lose weight, it always seems to start in the areas that need it least and then progress. This spring I lost about 30 lbs before I could see any real progress in my belly and breasts. My bottom, extremities, shoulders and face seemed to be losing all of the weight. But that was a temporary situation, thank goodness. Now that I am near goal, my waist is still thicker than I would like, but it no longer seems so disproportionate. My problem now is loose skin, not my body shape.

Your situation may not be as extreme as mine was, and your weight loss may be more evenly distributed as you progress, but even if you're like me, you'll get where you need to go.
