Please tell me my double chin will be the first thing to go.

Hi !

My surgery is set for tomorrow. August 16th.

So far I hbe lost 8 pounds on the liquid diet. I am excited to get started on this journey.

Just hoping that double chin will be the first thing I lose.

That would be great motivation.

Thanks terri.

I still have some double chin action going, but the first comments I got when I starting losing weight were that my face looked thinner. Can't wait until mine is gone for good!

We lose weight from the top down.... which for PEAR shapes like me is unfortunate. SO the odds of you losing that chin are pretty darn good!

Good Luck!!!

Oh great Cindy !! That sounds even worse !! Lol !

MustangMama, I'm glad you enjoyed the chuckle. That's how I meant it !!

My double chin is gone and I don't have the turkey waddle either. I am pear shaped too. I noticed my stomach has gone down a lot. Now I am waiting for the hips and buttocks to disappear. But I am happy with the results. 100 lbs down.

I don't know about that. I lost it in my thighs very quickly.

wow lucky you!! According to my doctor its the way it goes...but as we all have learned all doctors have a different school of thought

for me it seems to be the working that way but on others I'm sure it could be different

Hi, I'm pear shaped and please tell me after 100lbs you still have hips and butt? That's great because I dont want to loose my hips and butt, my husband would file for divorce! LOL! Running is what trims the hips and butt when you are shaped like us...looking forward to the perfect hourglass figure...goodluck!

Everybody has commented that they can see it in my face. I have lost 20 lbs and really don't see it or feel it except in the seat of myscrub pants mostly. I have been wearing scrubs since surgery because it's more comfortable with my incisions. I just put on a pair of dress pants Saturday nite and they didn't seem any bigger but the shirt I had on was looser. I think it's hard to look in the mirror and see ourselves like others do.

LOL, my husband is like yours. Butt and hips are still there. good luck to you.

I have lost my chin and no turkey waddle :lol: I am short and wide I quess an Apple and seem to be losing it all over in small does although I have found mt chest has lost several inches more than the rest of me :)

Funny you wrote that. Speaking for only me... Looking at both a "start date" photo and a head shot photo of me taken 45 days after surgery, I thought my hair had started to grow rapidly - Better eating, perhaps? After closer inspection, it wasn't my hair that was longer. My chin was shorter and my neck was longer!!! So, keep the hope alive!
