NSV! People are noticing!

Okay, so maybe it took me 40+ pounds, but this last week, I have had a lot of people tell me that I look like I am losing weight and compliment me on my efforts. It feels so good to have people notice. :bigsmile:

When did people begin to notice your efforts?

Yay! Great feeling. I did not have anyone notice until the last month. My Dad had not seen me since the beginning of June and my last visit in October as soon I got out of the car he said "You've lost weight!". He was the first person. Since then I have had two other people say something.

my coworker asked me recently if I lost alot of weight... only 25 lbs, but it is starting to get more noticed by the people around me!

I'm really happy for you. It took only 30 lbs for the first person to notice. I had been seeing a chiropractor for nearly a year and the first nine months or thereabouts his physical therapist was working me over pretty good with stretching ham strings, helping me do various exercises, and twice a week she did deep tissue massages. You might say she got to know my body fairly well. Maybe that's why she noticed at the 30 pound mark. I go once a month now just for adjustments for my scoliosis. Actually, I think I go more for the compliments on weight loss more than the adjustments.

Keep up the awesome work and more and more people will be complimenting you almost daily. It can really go to your head!

Great NSV! It's barely starting to happen for me @ 51lbs down....People say they can see it in my face

it was about the same amount for me when I was doing weight watchers. Since I have had a lull I expect it will take that much again for them to notice.

Congratulations on your losses to date and a wonderful NSV! :O) I know hearing nice things is such a great motivator to continue our efforts.

For me, many people still haven't noticed that I've lost weight, but I think it's because most of the people I know see me almost daily. It's a lot harder to notice (I think) when it's a slow, daily transition. It's part of the reason I try to take a picture once a month so that I can see if anything is happening.

That's neat that people are noticing. I believe I started getting the comments at about 20 lbs lost.

This is good info to have. I feel like at -17 lbs people should be noticing, but only my mom has said anything. (She is the most critical, so I feel she is natural to notice first) Sounds like it is more in the 25 lb range that people will notice. Thanks!
