    So I dont notice a difference. wondering if anyone else sees one.
    i still have a bit to lose and im losing my motivation,

    What people tend to forget is that there is a mental aspect to weight loss as well. Often we are our own biggest critics unfortunately :( First off there is DEFINATELY a difference!! And it's a noticeable one! Take lots of pics cause they can help remind you that your body IS changing! :) As my boyfriend has said to me, you are shrinking! :P

    If you haven't already, take measurements, photos.. it helps a lot. I didn't notice the difference in my own losses until a week or so ago.

    I can DEFINITELY see a difference!! and GOOD FOR YOU!! 17 pounds is amazing!! Don't you dare lose your motivation-if everyone can see a difference now, imagine how much of a difference you'll see in another 17 pounds down!! Just keep up what you're doing because it's obviously working!! "If you're tired of starting over again, stop giving up." One of my fav motivational quotes. hit up pinterest for some good motivation pics :0)

    I think the reason you arent noticing is bc your body is getting narrower (good!). I know the feeling bc I lose the same way. I feel like my stomach looks the same no matter what weight Im at bc my body just shrinks altogether in size the same way your's does. I just get smaller and smaller before I actually look skinnier

    that is exactly how i feel !!

    if you are like me, it happens like this bc you are small framed and naturally narrow so the fat really has no where to go (theres not a lot of width on our bodies). you will shrink to the point of pretty tiny bodied, and thereafter you will start to get skinnier. you dont expand in width much either when you gain so gaining/losing is less noticable than on a different body type

    I can see a difference especially in the stomach area. I know how you feel, though; I've lost 13 lbs and while my husband swears he can tell, I can't see any difference at all. Oh well. I'm hopeful I'll be able to really see it by 20 lbs lost!

    Definitely a difference! your stomach is less (less big and less pulling downwards) and your waist is becoming more pronounced. YAY for you!
