    My suggestion is to take measurements. I'm guessing, that when you gain/lose weight your body does it fairly proportionately so it's not super noticeable until there have been a lot of pounds.

    So take pictures and measurements. That when you get back to 155 you can tell the difference, and it doesn't feel like all this effort was for nothing.

    Wow, never knew fat even goes to the head. Weight is really a sneaky sun of a gun.

    Indeed it is! I have a trimmer and keep my head shaved (#1) and never picked up on the fact the ridge at the back was fat. It was only when I lost the weight and my wife pointed it out I noticed.

    And have since noticed my glasses now slide off my face at any given opportunity...

    It could be, like me, you wear a little all over - which adds up to more than you would think/it appears

    Yes, i see that it adds up according to scale. I definitely see a difference from my waist it used to be smaller. But my backfat was the motivation for me to get it together!

    hello everyone,

    Last yr i lost 15 pounds starting at 170 down to 155. I gained all weight back by becoming lazy plus 5 more. The only thing is you really can not tell! Ppl think i weigh around 150! So my question is if it isnt visible where is it?

    Pics or it didn't happen.

    My fat has always been pretty dense and evenly distributed. I gained 30 lbs over about 10 months a few years ago and didn't even realize because all my clothes still fit mostly the same. Even now I am at a lower weight than I have been in 6+ years and I am just now getting lower measurements with the tape measure and I've lost about 20 lbs now (40 from my highest). The fat's still there, just squishier now. Everyone is different.

    Yeah thats my case as well, although when i lose weight there does happen to be a 2-5inch gain in space.

    You probably have a ton of internal fat around your organs.

    ^^This is what the surgeon who removed my gallbladder said about my liver. This is not a good thing. I hate my chubby belly, but I really want most of my fat gone, or to be where I can see it, instead of lurking around deep inside surrounding my organs.

    Well yes that sounds very unhealthy, worst thing is you cant see it so that makes it worst. Weight is verrry sneaky
