A member asked:
Can you tell me how long it should take for weight loss to show in my legs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It will do slowly: The first place the weight loss shows is around the waist...Once that area has flattened out , then you will start losing it in other areas butit is a slow process, taking some months to getrid of the subcutaneous (under the skin) fat stores.
