Hi
I have been on and off this forum for a while now... recently married. :)
I have been training (Cardio and weights) for approximatley one month now and I have lost about 8 pounds in the past month and I can see the changes on my body. However, these changes are abnormal.
For example, my left chest area is still more fattier than my right, which I have lost alot of fat from. This includes some parts of my left side of the body. :(
It is really weird and putting me off training.
Does anyone have any advice please?

You can't choose how you lose.
Stick with it, it will even out eventually, and be prepared - fat gets uglier and uglier as you get rid of it (sorry).

Asimmer's 100% right on this one. When I lose weight I lose it all from my upper body before my lower body even starts to budge. It gets to the point where to me it looks like my upper body is too skinny, and my lower body is normal. (Nobody else thinks I look weird though) I think it's your body's way of trying to hold on to the fat it has as a survival technique or something. Trust me though, it'll even itself out eventually. Besides, it's probably only so noticeable to you because it's your body, but others probably can't even see it. DON'T STOP TRAINING THOUGH, you're doing great! Good luck!
