Hi everyone, I'm on day 9 and I haven't cheated at all and I've only lost 1 lb. I kept reading in the book about central obesity and how you lose belly fat first and was wondering if the fact that I'm extremely pear shaped is why I'm not losing as quickly. Is anyone else here pear-shaped and what kind of results have you seen? Thx!

I'm pear shape and although i did lose stomach first soon after came weight loss everywhere. I think you lose the belly first 'cause you lose water retention. When your body starts losing fat you lose it everywhere. It is the last place i lose though.
