I am 15 days out. Stomach still looks 6 months prego. Is this normal?

I don't think you can choose where you lose, most of us who are obese have big tummies and a lot of people seem to lose from top to bottom, that is, their face and neck look slim before the rest of them does.

Our bodies are all different, I am really a pear not an apple. I had my surgery on Halloween and have lost 12 pounds since my highest weight. I can already see that my tummy looks smaller, it doesn't "lap over" like it did before.

Not knowing you body shape or starting weight this is a tough question to answer.

Your tummy is still swollen so it will take time for it to go down. I am 8 weeks out today and this is the first week I have felt that I my tummy is smaller. I have list in my butt and legs. My husband and daughter talk about my toothpick legs and my flat backside. Like the others say we can't pick where we lose.
