    I can certainly see a difference, but a lot of times people who see you everyday don't notice those changes until you've lost ALOT. I think it took until I had lost around 50 pounds before people started commenting on it. Then it goes in spurts. Thankfully I've hit a new round of people noticing and commenting, because I've hit a bit of a plateau, which can be discouraging. It will come! I don't know if it is the same with guys, but I found that people noticed more when I started buying new clothes and wearing those instead of just my old clothes fitting looser.

    I can see a difference too... and like she said^^^ the people you are around all day everyday don't notice until the difference is huge. I have lost 40 pounds and dropped 2 pants sizes and nobody has noticed, or at least has said anything. Another thing, these people don't see you with your shirt off.... unless you wear very tailored clothes the weight loss won't be as noticeable. Keep your head up! You have done a great job!

    Who cares what any of them say/think. You are doing this for you....not for them. Be proud of your accomplishment.

    I can definately see a difference, but in their defense...I workout with a girl every day and she lost 70 pounds and since I see her every day I didn't really notice as it was happening.

    You look great! Definitely a difference! I agree with the comments above, they probably see you too often to notice. Way to go!

    you can definitely see the difference! They must be crazy. Maybe they just have seen you everyday so it isn't such a "shock" as a side by side photo is.

    my pants dont even fit any more (they fall down) and no one says they can see any difference.
    haters are my motivators?
    only joking. but really who cares about what anyone else has to say, how does it make you feel?

    Your co-workers as awful people. YOUR WEIGH LOSS IF VERY NOTICEABLE! Especially since you are a man and don't have other lumps.

    You can tell from the face that you lost weight. Good job! When people see you everday they won't notice the difference as much.

    I can see a difference, perhaps they haven't noticed as they see you all the time, you should try and find people you've not seen in a while.

    I can see a difference. I wouldn't worry too much about what your coworkers say. You have to keep in mind that they see you almost everyday. So the changes per day/week is gradual. It is a lot different when there is a decent span of time when seeing someone or a before/after picture.
