Every individual stores fat differently based on their genetics, environmental and lifestyle factors, body type. The order by which one looses fat in the body will also vary alot by the individual, there is no one-pattern-fits-all guideline. On a general note, men tend to loose abdominal fat first while women loose fat around hips, buttocks and thighs first.
