15 lbs DOES make a difference! (pics)

I was feeling really discouraged about my weight loss because I worked so hard to lose 15 lbs but I wasn't SEEING any results! I focus on my stomach the most, because that's what I want to lose more than anything. It wasn't until I hung my 2012 Easter bunny picture up next my 2011 Thanksgiving picture that I actually SAW a change in my face! It looks thinner and not so round anymore. I am soooo excited now and motivated to keep up with my workouts and eating right! I know that I will see the results in my stomach too but to see it in my face feels wonderful.

So the moral of the story is don't give up because even a "small" change makes a huge difference! :heart:

    For some reason the face is always the first to show I think. I just hit my 15 lbs lost when I weighed myself yesterday and as I can see some changes in my body, its the most noticable in my face. Keep up the hard work and you will get there. There are times I feel discougared too because my stomach is where I want to lose the most weight from and although I have gone down a pant size the fat just isn't coming off as quickly as I would like. Also try and add some strength exercises (that's what I need to do) and it will help with toning and will help with noticing the weight coming off.

    For SURE there's a difference! Keep it up! The weight is coming off very slowly for me too but I'm determined to see it to the end. :)

    15 lbs is a huge loss. You are almost half way to your goal weight and think of all the positive changes you have made.

    Keep going. It's working. You CAN do it.
