How many pounds did you have to lose before people started noticing your weight loss?

I'm only 9.6 lbs (lol, .6) down so far so I don't expect it at this point but I've got close to 100 to lose so I'm looking forward to the day when someone notices!

    I didn't start getting comments from people who weren't already aware of my efforts until I'd lost enough to go shopping for new clothes.

    I started getting comments when I lost enough weight to wear new clothes. With clothes that fit my "new" body, it made it more obvious that I had lost weight. Prior to that, only the people who knew I was losing weight would comment - but they were looking for changes.
  • My friends only tell me because they know I am dieting,so they try to be nice. I have lost over 10 pounds so far,and I still don't see it myself!! clothes are fitting as always,maybe a tiny bit bigger,but not a huge difference for people to notice.I do appreciate the compliments anyways :)

    I started with 170 to lose and I am down 30. It is just getting to the point that people closest to me are noticing the weight loss and people at work are noticing that something is different. They can't put their finger on it and usually ask if I've changed my hair or tell me that I look nice that day.
