Its pretty similiar for me, although I get a bit in my back as well.
I started the Anabolic Diet about 2.5 weeks ago and I’ve noticed my gut is getting smaller. It’s probably got alot to do with your diet also.
This is what CT has said about fat storage sites:

Abdomen is NOT related to insulin sensitivity but to elevated cortisol.
Supra-iliac (love handles) and upper back are related to insulin sensitivity.
Chin & Cheek: these first two measures are the first one to go down and they are not associated with any specific hormone imbalances. However if facial fat increases
while other sites stay stable it is an indication of adrenal burnout. This might be one of the reason why modern bodybuilders are often ripped to the bone, yet still have a
round face (Jay Cutler is a good example).
Triceps: indicate how male you are. The lower the triceps is, the more testosterone(natural or from an injection) you have. A natural (not using steroids) woman cannot have a triceps fold of less than 6mm (give-away for steroids use in almost all cases).
Pectoral: indicate if you are prone to aromatization (converting testosterone to estrogen) or not. If the pectoral measure is higher than the triceps then you are
probably converting too much of your testosterone into estrogens.
Subscapular: genetic predisposition toward handling carbs. The higher this measure is, the more insulin-resistant (do not tolerate carbs well) you are.
Supra-iliac: current situation regarding insulin levels. If it is too elevated you are consuming too much carbs.
Umbilical/abdomen: a high measure here compared to the rest is indicative of bad cortisol modulation. Note that elevated abdominal fat is representative of long term cortisol elevation, not of what happened in the past weeks. If your abdominal fat is high compared to other measures it means that your cortisol has been out of whack for a while.
Mid-axilary: a high measure here indicate bad thyroid modulation. Either you are not producing enough thyroid hormone or the conversion from the relatively inactive T4
into the more active T3 is inhibited.
Knee & Medial calf: these two measures indicate growth hormone production (so the quality of sleep too). A high knee measure compared the the calf is a sign of liver
toxicity.
Quadriceps & Hamstrings: these are the estrogen sites. When these are elevated compared to the upper body it means that the body is producing too much estrogen. In males this obviously means lower testosterone too (either because a lot of the testosterone is aromatized into estrogen or because both hormones are made of
pregnenolone… overproducing one thus means underproducing the other).[/quote]
Hope that helps some.
