When did people start noticing your weight loss?

It took 40lbs for anyone to notice and then they were shocked. I covered up really well and now that I am much thinner, I wear tighter clothes.

I think about 20 lbs.
my favorite compliment is how much younger I look!!!! Love those people. lol

I wat to lose 90 to 100 pounds. I am down 34 pounds and finally people are starting to notice. I get a lot of " OMG you have lost a lot of weight how are you doing it?"

I gained a lot with my first child and started hanging out with new people. Most of them had never seen me thin. It was almost like I lost it all over night so I didn't get many comments until it was all gone. So at around 80lbs lost the rumors started flying that I was a coke head and that's how I lost the weight. I've never been into drugs so I was rather insulted so the loss was bitter sweet when it came to what others had to say.

After my second I lost 35 lbs and had 10 to go before I became pregnant again and no one noticed.

Now I've lost 32 lbs and people seem to comment because they think they are motivating me not because they really notice. At least that's how I feel about it. I don't expect anyone to notice any losses for another 20lbs. Between 180-160 there doesn't seem to be much of a noticeable difference in appearance.

I have 130lbs to lose and at 27lbs lost there have only been a couple people who have noticed. Mostly because my face is thinner.
I think most of the time people do notice when you have lost weight, but they do not say anything.

My closest friend noticed at my 10 pound loss. I couldn't even believe she noticed....heck, I couldn't even notice anything then! Everyone else noticed around my 20 pound loss. Now everybody notices and comments. At work yesterday I saw someone who hadn't seen me since I began this journey and she said she didn't even recognize me! Really?!! Wow...I liked that!

for me I had to lose 30 lbs before anyone started noticing, but I did have 90 lbs to lose. 20 more to go woohoo, thanks to MFP (and friends support on MFP) I am closer to my goal.

I've lost 24 lbs and my coworkers have just started to notice, commenting on the difference in my face and my baggy jeans. I am 5'3" and have another 75 lbs to lose.

So far the only person who has noticed is my best friend...but she only said something when i vented my frusterations at not losing fast enough...i had sent her a picture (my current profile pic), about a week prior and then she said she meant to tell me she could tell i look thinner. NOT saying she was lying to make me feel better...I have a lot to lose and am only 5 down so far.

She will be a good person to tell though because i only see her once or twice a year...unlike my fiance who 1-isn't the most observant about some stuff, and 2-sees me every day.

I personally have started to see it (maybe? or is it because i am looking for it? If anyone who knows me personally is reading this thread, let me know!!) in my own face. And i CERTAINLY noticed it when my jeans almost fell completely down a couple weeks ago! :noway:

I am going to guess i will have to be in the 20's or even 30's lost before people notice to the point they say anything....

I had some family and friends commenting at the 5lb mark. Oddly one co-worker never said anything until I hit about the 20lb mark and his comment was 'I can really see it in your face', lol. I said ' wow, how big WAS my head?' (Like John Pinette's comedy act.) I'm kinda a jerk like that. We laughed about it, he said 'no really I see it everywhere'. I love messing with him. I noticed it in my clothes right away at the 5lb mark, feeling looser, my pants are baggier, some are waaay to big on me, others fit that I haven't been able to wear in a few years. I still have 40lbs to go to my first goal, then I'll be reassessing to see if I'm continuing on for another 20 or toning only. I'm so happy with my progress so far.
