Slow Progress, but I think it's Progress!

So, I've been battling with my weight for years. I've been on my latest attempt for about 2 months now, and due to various ups and downs have only lost 6lbs. However, people keep saying I look a lot thinner generally, only, I can't see it 
So I'm posting some before and after shots, and you guys can tell me if I'm getting somewhere
This first one was taken on 24th May, 2010:

This next one was taken on 12th June, 2011

This third one was taken on 12th October 2011, the day I went on holiday (I'm on the left, in case you were wondering
)

And this last one was taken on 17th January 2012, and is the most recent photo I have where I'm not bundled up in lots of layers (although I'm wearing a hockey shirt, which doesn't help, I know!)

I'm hopeful I've at least made SOME progress over 2 years - I have a feeling it might be more than 6lbs total, but 6lbs is what I've lost in the last couple of months

So I'm posting some before and after shots, and you guys can tell me if I'm getting somewhere

I hope that helped, maybe someone else could help with the rest. great work non the less, 6lbs in 2 months is great. As long as the scale is going down, not up0

Thank you!
I managed to figure out the photos, just needed to change some stuff from upper to lower case
Yep, as long as the scale goes down, it doesn't matter how long it takes. Although that 2010 picture is horrible, I think I MUST have changed from THAT!0
