It used to be face then boobs, when I was younger. Now it's face then upper abdomen, and then starts shrinking all over--except the boobs. LOL, you keep them when you really don't need them.

I was surprised, though, when I measured after not having done it for a long while. It doesn't feel like my waist has really gone down--but it's down almost 4 inches, and my hips, too.

That post-60 belly though--I'm pretty sure it'll be the last to go, IF it goes. The top just keeps on, but the band size shrinks.

However, today I tired on a woven button down that had been tight before and discovered it fit much better, so apparently I've been losing from the top. I had noticed that my everyday shirts felt looser, but those are cotton T-shirts so I thought they were just getting stretched over time. Glad that SOMETHING is getting smaller finally!
What about you guys? Where do you find you first started feeling your weight loss?

Face, neck and shoulders. It's only been six weeks, but so far so good. I have a long way to go before trying on old jeans.

^^^ same. I pretty much maintain the same basic shape whether I'm 200lbs. or 150lbs., just smaller/bigger or wider/less jiggly :P
