Can't believe I'm posting these but....
This is me in January 19th 2011 at 210lbs.
This is me in May 2011 at around 220-225lbs This is the photo that jolted me into losing weight.
This was taken on Friday, I'm now 175lbs
I really can't see a difference, I've gone down from a UK 18-20 to a UK 16, that's nothing & I feel like a failure.
Okay, had ago at resizing the pics.

Your back fat, love handles, and what I lovingly call the *kitten* shelf, is gone. This is why measuring tapes are fantastic.0

OMG. You, my friend, need a new mirror. You look fab!
Take a minute to enjoy your success as your hard work has paid off!0 -
dont your clothes fit differently? ...
apparently we all see a difference.0 -
Wow! We have the same problem!!!! It seems to be all in one place, our stomach. Even when I lose some pounds it must go from my earlobes and toes cause that middle part looks just the same. Even your cat looks like mine. Also, I could use a weight loss friend - are you available?
Thanks,

No, my clothes fit the same0 -
Sometimes the mind needs to catch up with the body...Perhaps you don't see it because you are not at your goal yet, but there is a physical difference! You have done a fabulous job dropping 50 pounds, this is fantastic. Be kind to yourself, tell your mind to thank your body for responding to your efforts by saying good bye to 50 pounds. Don't stop what your doing, it will happen you will see the difference and I am certain you feel the difference!0

Yeah, my stomach never seems to shrink!
& sure I'll add you.0 -
You can definitely tell that there's a difference! Despite that your arm is against your torso in the after and your arm is extend in the before, your after arm looks much slender. Your stomach is indeed much smaller.. yes, there is definitely a difference.
Take a step back, put the pictures side by side on your screen. I think you are being too hard on yourself!0 -
You are crazy!!
You look fantastic!
The middle to the top is a great transformation! The top to the bottom you look like you've definitely become more lean. Don't be so hard on yourself because you have lost a huge chunk of weight and you should be proud of that!0 -
Yes you look slimmer. Are you tall? I am and it's hard for me to tell the difference also when I loose weight.0

I can see the difference, you look great. Well done 45lbs is no mean feat!
You mention your dress size hasn't changed much...for what it's worth my opinion on this is.....
We **squeeze** into the larger clothes even though we could use a larger size until we realise we need to do something about it. Then our clothes become more comfortable, then loose, then we drop a size, they're a but tight, then comfortable, then loose.....you see the pattern? 3 states to each dress size!0 -
