When do you loose in your hips?

[Pie4me]

I was wondering....

When did some of you really start to see your hips
disappear?

I am 47 yoa and 5'9. I don't really have much to
loose at this point. I have been on Atkins for 22
days and lost 11 pounds so far...from 163 to 152.
It seems I have lost almost everywhere but my hips.
My measurements right now are 38-31-42.
I am pretty happy with my bust and waist BUT I
want my hips to be smaller. I fast walk 5 times a
week for 3 miles and follow the diet to a T.
Any ideas? (I do have 2 kids....they do help
those hips spread-it seems!) Thanks!

I think I lost a little all along, sometimes I sort of miss them when I try to close the kitchen drawers with them like I used to! (Of course I DON'T want them back!!!)

Its going to depend on the displacment of your hips and actually how much fat is on them. If there is only a small amount of fat, and the wideness is causes by actual bone placement, then there is really nothing you can do.

I think I lost mine when I was born ...

The bone placement is genetic .. the fat will go with cardio!! Yes, indeed, it is possible to run your buns off! Or if you can't run, just do lots of speed walking!

My hips are the last thing to go! I originally thought it was belly fat that was hardest to get rid of but I am changing my vote to the saddlebags......
