Sooooo, I've lost 14 almost 15 pounds (pats self on back) My clothes are getting baggier which I like, but I don't feel like I look any different. No one has said anything, so I was wondering.. When did you start to notice that you were looking thinner?

How much weight had come off when you started noticing?

    I didn't really notice until just after I took off a cruise with my high school fellow grads. I had lost over 30 pounds by then.

    I have start noticing about at the same time as you actually, so far I have lost 16 pounds and I can see that my body is changing and that my clothes are getting larger. But as for anybody around you don't mind this. Do it for you and only for you! Congrats for the 14 pounds! Keep up the good work!

    This is a true story!

    I hadn't really noticed much change until the 30lb mark! I noticed my face was skinnier but the thing that sealed it was I put on some jeans I hadn't worn for a month & were previously snug without a belt.... opened my front door to go out when they fell down to my ankles! Then & only then had I know I made it! And I was really embarrassed, it was a weird mix of emotions.

    It was when I tried on my favorite size 18 jeans, and a friend of mines stated that they were, 'Saggy in the butt area'..

    I noticed at about 25 lbs. That's around the time I started digging out winter clothes and most of them were baggy!

    At about 40 pounds people really started commenting on my weight loss... Of course I noticed my clothes getting smaller sooner, but I didn't really see a change in me until recently!

    People started noticing when I lost around 10 lbs. Thats also about when my clothes started getting too big

    It mus be noted that the closer to your 'ideal' weight the quicker weight loss notices, I'll now lose 5 - 10lbs and it'll be drastically different.

    It seems like other people start noticing once someone has lost about 10% of their body weight.
