    Have you tried taking your measurements? You will see that you will have definitely lost some inches!!

    Don't completely rely on the scales - its all in the inch loss!! zz

    I've stayed about the same weight for the past two or three weeks, but I've lost about an inch and a half in my stomach

    I struggled to visually see any difference in myself for ages even though a lot of friends said the could easily see a difference. I think seeing a difference in yourself is hard, but it does happen eventually. The weight is going it's just not easy for you to see.

    my inches havent really changed that much since i started, bit less but not hugely. yeah my mum and my best friend said they could notice it, but its just frustrating to look in the mirror and feel like nothings changed :(

    Try on something you haven't worn in a long time...

    I remember getting some little shorts out to take on holiday in September. The previous year I had worn them and they were form fitting - I felt okay (when I was standing) and a little uncomfortable when I sat down.

    Luckily I tried them on before I packed, as they literally fell down - I could take them on and off without the button and they hung off me! That was a nice feeling...and meant a lot more than either numbers on a scale or a tape measure!! :laugh:

    To start with I thought my friends were just being nice and trying to encourage me, but looking back I certainly think they saw my shape change well before I did.

    i can fit into my size 10s now so thats a plus, even a little bit loose! but when i look at myself without my clothes on, the bits that i wanted to lose fat on still seem to look gross :(
