So I started July 17 2011, and my scale is telling me that ive lost 11lbs! Im really happy, but im not seeing any difference. Should I be seeing something or does it take longer to see inches off.

    And the answer is- It depends! Everyone is different. Are you exercising? Are you just cutting calories? How much do you need to lose? It takes time and effort. Take your measurements once or twice each month as well as weighing in regularly (weekly). It can take 8 weeks before you really can tell anything really definite.

    It depends where you were and where you are now. If you have a lot of body fat (like me, cough cough), then it is easier to burn fat quickly, but you won't see a very visible result until about 20-30 lbs in, unfortunately :( keep up the good work though!
