when could you tell a difference.

i had a few people notice the difference now at an 18 lbs weight loss. I don't see it yet..from previous experience for me.. i have to lose 20 lbs to go down a size.

Sometimes other people are hesitant to say anything... for whatever reason- not wanting to hurt feelings, or knowing that acknowledging another's loss makes them have to look at themselves. Keep it up though! You will notice a difference eventually. Taking pictures every 4-6 weeks is a great way to really see the weight loss.

I have ONLY lost 20 lbs this whole year but my inches are going. I would look at me in the mirror the rolls and the tiger marks from my son and see no improvement. I put on a dress that was "just right" when I was 20 lbs heavier and it now has a few inches loser where it was tight. It is hard but trying on those close you bought because your wardrobe shrunk over night now after you dropped a few you can tell the difference, some where and soon you will be able to shop you closet for those items that "shrunk on you weeks/months/years ago.

i think im like you i was 205 to start and i really didnt look like i weighed over 200 pounds i have always caried my weight very well you may have more muscul mass to make you weigh more and i started to tell a diffrence at the 10 pound mark i think it just depends on how much weight you have to take off.... and some one told me the other day most people wont say wow your loosing weight because there jelious and when people see your doing so good they want to compete with you and i think thats very true

I've lost 17 lbs, and no one has noticed yet. But we just recently moved so I don't see a lot of people who might be able to tell.

We won't be going home again, I don't think, anyway, for 7 more weeks. Hopefully by then I'll be 30 lbs down and people might notice then!

I was once told by a dietician that sometimes people dont look like theres been a change until 50lbs (WTH?!). I have lost nearly 40lbs and I think I notice around 25lbs. I noticed more so in the way my clothes fit but now that I look at before and after pictures I think WHOA because there's definitely a difference, lol. Keep putting the work in and you'll notice for sure.

Do comparison pictures. I have lost 21 pounds and couldn't really SEE a difference. Sure I had to get a belt, then I was belting it at smaller sizes, and even when I went down a size in pants I still couldn't really see a difference. So last night I had my husband take "after" pictures for my 21 pounds lost. Then compared them to the "before" pictures. And man, can I tell a difference when those pictures are side by side!

So, my advice would be to start taking pictures. Do it weekly, or do it every 10 or 20 pounds..but do it on a regular basis. I did these picture at about 20 pounds lost, and plan on doing every 10 pounds now.

God bless!
