Nobody has really noticed my weight loss yet.....doesn't help that everyone I see, I see daily or almost daily at work etc. Anyway, today my husband came home from work today, gave me a kiss and then he wrapped his arms around me and hugged me....right as he was letting go of me he said "You feel smaller!" I put my hands up in the air and said "YES!!!" LOL!!!! Best feeling! Makes all the hard work so worth it! :drinker:

Hi Miss M,
I know the boat you in totally. (I think we are rowing it together) I've lost 13, and 13 pounds doesn't put you in a new wardobe, just make the wardore you have fit better or be a little loose.
I'm proud of you! There have been posts about how hard it is to see the physical differences in yourself. I think that others have problems seeing the changes until the changes are so dramatic that you'd have to be blind NOT to see it.0 -
YAHOOOO!!! Oh, Maureen, I am sooo happy for you! :bigsmile: :bigsmile: :bigsmile: That was better than all the chocolate in the world! Congrats on all your hard work! :drinker: :drinker: :drinker:

It's funny actually because even at 29 pounds lost, no one at work really notices because they see you every day. My boss says that she didn't even realize that I had gained weight. But when someone does notice, it's an amazing feeling for certain.
Congratulations on the 17 pounds!0 -
My boss finaly said something at 22 pounds lost. But they have seen me gain and lose the first 10 so many times I don't think they notice fluxes anymore. Only my family seems to notice this time. I kinda like it. Now that we are coming into cooler weather I want unveil next summer with a surprisingly fit body. Just my fantasy.0

It doesn't have to be a fantasy. It CAN be a reality if you want it bad enough. I can't wait to feel comfortable in a bikini again.0 -
Thanks everyone! :flowerforyou: Texemgirl....yes it was better than any amount of chocolate! :drinker:
Sorry about the double post, though :blushing:0 -
That is awesome! It's the best when the person who sees you day in and day out notices! Congrats on your success0

Congratulations!!!! When I lost 20 pounds while my husband was away for 2 months.. he came back and couldnt' stop telling me how much thinner I was.. It was the BEST feeling in the world. I still hold onto the words he said to keep myself on track and keep going to get more fit. I have been losing more inches than pounds though. As I build muscle and burn fat.. the scale doesn't change as dramatically as the measurements. I lost 8 dress sizes with those 20 pounds! But I gained some muscle weight, and I am perfectly happy with that :drinker: Keep up the good work!!0

:happy: I have lost 42 lbs since March! My husband is very supportive and gives me accolades all the time, which I appreciate. I'm just not losing as much per month as I was the first 3 months. And I'm having trouble drinking 8 glasses of water. I do drink 6 glasses of water or Crystal Light each day. And I walk 3 times per week and work out twice a week. It's a long battle and I let myself get way too heavy before I decided to lose the weight. I'm a size 12 now, but want to be a size 8. Sometimes I gain part of a lb when I weigh myself, and I don't know why! :sad:
Congrats to all who have lost weight on MFP. It's great! Keep up the good work!0 -

Congratulations. My honey is the only one to notice my weight loss also. But his compliments mean the most to me anyway, so It works out fine. Keep up the great work.0
