Body shape changing? Anyone else experienced this?

Ive lost about 8 pounds overall now but actually feel like I look fatter from before. Before I lost weight my hips were bigger which in a way made my waist look smaller in proportion but now my hips are smaller I feel like I look larger overall.

Has anyone else experienced this? The scales are going down gradually over the months but I can’t gauge how I look?

Are you a pear shape? I am and used to have a very slim waist but it has widened as I have got older. I'm currently losing weight so hard to comment, but I have lost a little on my waist but it is now coming off my hips. I guess it depends on your body shape as to where you lose weight first as it will be different for a pear, apple, Hourglass etc.

I've lost nearly 6 stone. At the beginning there was an 11 inch difference between my waist and my hip circumference. (42/53). Now there is an 8 1/2 inch difference (32.5/41).
