    I can see a difference. You've lost a lot of weight so far, and well done you. Remember, it'll be coming off internally too, which is the healthiest weight loss. Keep going, and I'm sure you'll start seeing more, have you taken measurements? Do that, and you will see a difference.

    We never see the difference in ourselves!!! Thank goodness for MFPals - because we all see the changes you've made!!! What a great job you have done so far!!! Keep going - I'm so proud of you. Definitely take your measurements and have someone else take some full body pics for you.

    I can most definitely see a difference. Sometimes its hard for us to realise the difference in our own bodies, I usually go not only by the scales but by how differently I feel in my clothes. Well done with this, and keep going, you're doing a great job :)

    Sorry you cant see it - that is frustrating. But trust the outside world of opinions- it can be seen!!! Very much so.

    You have done amazing work and your attitude is GREAT- its obvious you are on the right track.

    Congrats on the success of your hard work - and keep it up - you are doing SO SO GOOD!

    PS- I did your inky-blinky-pinky-clyde necklace :)

    You can DEFINITELY see it! Look closely at your before and after pictures...your whole upper body is so much smaller! And trust me, as someone who has "linebacker" issues, I would know! You're doing great!!! Give yourself a pat on the back!

    I can see a difference in your body and I can see a HUGE difference in your face.

    Don't let it discourage you if you don't notice a difference! You've come so far and it takes many baby steps to lose weight. Just remember that eventually every calorie, every meal, every day, every pound (or fraction of a pound) WILL add up.

    Just keep doing what you're doing :) Thanks for sharing your progress!

    there is so much difference in the pictures. you have lost and it is visible. congrats

    Thank you! I can feel a difference. But I don't have a body mirror, and can only go off pics :[

    sometimes pics are better, because our eyes deceive us... I think I look better in the mirror than in a pic.. and pics dont lie.. so, believe your pics... there is a difference.. Good Job.. keep it up!

    I can DEFINITELY see a difference. Great job, absolutely great! :)

    I was 323lbs when I started, and am 236 now, and I couldn't really see a difference for a long time, but everyone else around me did. So don't trust your own eyes, I think it's a "can't see forrest for all the trees" sort of deal.

    As many have said, 1 day a time! Keep up the fantastic work!

    You are looking so much healthier and happier! I know it's hard to see it yourself--- I started taking regular pictures of myself, and I look back on my old pictures with shock ("I was really this big?") Keep working it, you are doing GREAT!

    I can see a difference! They say that if you carry most of your weight in one area that is the last weight to come off. I can tell you of the weight I have lost, the last 30 lbs was more noticeable to me than the first 90! My advice - keep smaller clothes in your closet - go pick up some things at a thrift store - and try them on often - you will be surprised when you see the sizes you move through! I had clothes I skipped right over because I didn't check often enough!
