When you start losing weight, it goes from all over the body. Some areas of your body are genetically bigger/smaller and will lose weight first/last. Like many women, the first place I lost weight was my breasts, unfortunately. The stomach is usually the most difficult to burn and takes a little bit longer to burn than the rest of the fat on your body.
It really depends on your genes, what kind of exercises you're doing and how much weight you're trying to lose.
If you have a naturally bigger booty, it will probably stay relatively big (though it will shrink). If you're not sure, take a look at the people in your family (women if you are a female) and see what their body type is like. My family tends to have slightly bigger thighs, so when I lost weight I knew my legs were going to stay a bit thicker, even though I was jogging and burning a lot of fat from them.
If you're trying to lose a lot of weight, then your booty will probably be more dramatically affected.
There are some butt exercises you can look up google that will help tone your behind. Things like squats, lunges, jogging, walking, dancing and aerobics will help as well. Anything that gets your but muscles moving!
Honestly, I don't think you'll lose your butt. I had a biggish butt and now it's gone down to the size it's meant to be (and toned up so it's a lot firmer), but it's still a bit of a big booty. [ xXxPuNki-PiXiExXx's advice column | Ask xXxPuNki-PiXiExXx A Question ]
