    Yes, it's noticeable; you look like a different person. I do agree that it's possible that some are jealous and others may not want to offend. Guilt about their unhealthy lifestyles may have also slapped them hard in the face. It really comes down to the individual. I'm not sure if this was asked as a possibility. Are they the type that are less likely to give compliments? Some people are just not the complimenting type. It may sound odd, but it's quite difficult and unnatural for some. I'm the complete opposite; I'm always throwing compliments. I hope the shower of compliments here made up for it!

    You look completely different! Some people are just a little awkward when commenting on weightloss! Maybe thats it? Anyway, be proud of your achievement!
  • He dude have you lost weight... (I don't see why they don't say anything. )

    I'm a woman and I dropped 30lbs and lost a significant portion of my stomach, two dress sizes, and fat under my chin and had the same experience. No one noticed. I think most people don't think it's polite to mention it honestly.

    The difference is DEFINITELY noticeable! I agree with others who said people are probably just reluctant to bring it up. You have a lot to be proud of!!

    Definitely see a BIG difference, even if it was a `suck in' photo - your face looks a lot thinner as well and you couldn't `suck in' all that original.

    I also think that people who see you everyday don't notice as they don't see the before and after but a gradual loss which isn't noticeable as much!

    Well I am doing really well. I feel good and think I look better. I am close to 25 pounds down, another 25 and I will be very happy with myself. I am just a bit bummed no one has commented. So now I look to you guys.. ha. I am not that concerned because I do this for myself, but some positive comments would be nice to see. How long does that take? Or do people just not want to say anything? Or just not that noticeable yet? thanks folks!

    Apparently I can't read as my topic suggests.. Yikes.

    theyre jealous

    ^^^ what this guy said!
    you look great! keep it up!

    Wow! Maybe no one has said anything, but unless you live in a dark hole or everyone around you is blind, I hardly think that no one would have noticed. You look completely different! Great job! I bet you feel a whole heck of a lot better too! Keep up the good work. (Honestly, I think if you were a chic people would have been all over you with feedback, it's just you dudes seem to communicate to one another differently than us chics!)

    You look great! Your face looks slimmer, your belly looks slimmer! Great job! Maybe your friends/family need to go in for a group eye exam :)

    Completely shocked that noone has mentioned your loss!
    It is extremely obvious!

    Good job and keep up the hard work. I can't imagine what your next 25 will look like - Awesome work!!!!!

    For sure people have noticed. That is a huge change, congrats!

    I think dudes are less likely to comment about another dudes weight and women...well I think some people feel like if they mention it, it suggests that they thought you needed to loose weight...they'd rather look like they never noticed before that you were heavier. As a person who has been up and down with my own weight, I've taken that as a lesson that I am thrilled when people comment on it so I make sure to to others.

    You are doing awesome.

    You look amazing! Don't quit. It's a huge difference. People get weird around weight loss. They're afraid to say anything, in case you're sick or something. Or it sounds inappropriate or awkward at work to comment on someone's appearances (HR issues and all). Don't sweat it. Trust me, there's no way people don't notice! You look incredible!

    Yeah, you're swimming in those jeans! I know people that just avoided saying anything cause they didn't know if it'd be awkward for me or for them. One time some one was like, "Wow, Emily, did you lose weight? You look great! …Not that you didn't look great before… Not that you needed to lose weight or anything…. 0_o" Lol, she got so awkward, it was unnecessary, I just thanked her, but yeah, I think people are afraid of coming off like this.

    It's kind of shocking that nobody has said anything. You actually look like you lost more than 25 pounds. You look fantastic. I bet if you ran into someone you haven't seen in a long time, they would notice right away.

    First off, You look amazing! I hope you are so proud of yourself! Look how your hard work paid off!

    Secondly, maybe some folks just don't want to offend you by thinking you needed to lose weight in the first place. Believe it or not, that's what happened to me. I didn't have a neighbour comment on my weight loss until I hit my 100 lb mark, and instead of asking if I lost weight, she asked if I got sick. Some people just don't honestly know how to approach weight issues or situations.

    Take it from us, you look great!
  • I can't believe no-one has commented on your loss... it is VERY obvious to me. Great job!! Maybe the people in your life don't think they need to comment but have noticed. Keep up the great work, no matter who comments or doesn't comment.:smile:

    You definitely look different, I just think some people are afraid to bring up weight with others. I wouldn't say to someone gee wiz you look like you gained a lot of weight, but if I see they have lost something I'd say, oh you look smaller these days and then try to figure out if that was on purpose or not. I know one time I was like you look so slim! nice body etc, and she was all like" im too busy with my 3 jobs and haven't had time to eat, im starving and that's why i look crazy skinny" and i was like oh... well hope you gain some weight soon! hehe.

    weird no one has noticed! you look totally different! congrats!!
  • Yes it is a noticeable difference....sometimes people don't know what to say because they may be afraid you are sick and losing weight, or that it may be a sensitive subject and applaud silently what you've accomplished.

    I too have lost 24 pounds....AND I went from a dark brunette to a golden blonde and other than my best friend, none of my other girlfriends said ANYTHING :( I started to think "Dang I must look bad" but then people I hadn't seen in a while were like "WOW you look really good" So I think those who see us everyday may just not know what to say!?!

    Keep doing for you though, that is the main thing, if you feel good and feel better about you it doesn't matter if no-one or everyone notices!!! :)

    Dammmmmmn! It is very obvious. Maybe you should invest in some smaller tee-shirts and show off your slimmed down size.

  • People are just jealous! You look fab!! It's so obvious. There are haters out there who want to lose weight themselves. People have noticed, I'm sure!
