Disproportionate

So, I'm super excited about having lost close to 70 pounds, but I've noticed that the more weight I lose the more disproportionate I'm becoming. When I work out, I usually work out my core, and legs however it seems that I lose the most weight in my upper body. Right now I'm a 8/10 in shirts, but a 14/16 in pants. Weird huh?

Has that happened to anyone else? Am I just destined to be bottom heavy? Any workout suggestions?

Seems to work that way with me too. A few people have "warned" me about losing too much stating I look great now when I tell them I'm trying to drop another 70 pounds or so. It's true I have a "fairly" trim waste at 38" (compared to pre-op 52") but the backs of my thighs and calves are sure fat yet. I tend to lose it all over but not quite as much downstairs as upstairs.

Yes, I'm smaller up top than from the hips down. Some has come off, as my inner thighs are pretty flabby, but mostly it's been face, neck, arms, torso. I'm a Medium top but still a 16 pant. I read once that you lose in the reverse order that you gain, so the stuff that's been around the longest is the last to go--for me that will be hips and abdomen.
