When did you first realize you were losing weight? Looser clothes? Thinner face? My first clue when I'm losing is my rings become too big...guess that means I need new jewelry!! When I lose weight, I do it in my hands and face first...then the rest of me follows.

    My legs! I have naturally muscular legs, and they just shrunk like mad in the first week. They're looking so fab now.

    I'm a nurse and wear scrubs 24/7, so I first noticed my pants looser ( I had just bought 3 new pairs of scrubs in June) and my scrub top can fit all the way down over my butt when I pull it down.

    Got my waist back. It was a proud day. (Noticed that when I was finally fitting back into size 10 and 12 jeans.)

    definitely shirts fitting better... and general feeling of slimness (even if it's not obvious really, I just kinda FEEL better).

    I have upper and lower belly fat - YUCK - but the upper part was looking smaller and I looked better in shirts/tops without a spanx kinda thing :-)

    Other than obviously when you step on the scale, it was when I had to start tightening my belt one notch. That was a good day.

    Mine was my b00bs disappearing :grumble: Strangely enough though, even though I've had my wedding and engagement rings for 10 years and have possibly been this weight in my married life, my rings became much too big about 28lbs ago :ohwell:

    My hand and face too! It's so funny how little things make you feel so much better. I went to buy a new watch a few months ago. I was so embarrassed because all the ones I tried on were too tight. Now, all the watches I have need a link or two taken out! :-)

    I didn't notice, other people did! When I had lost about 15 pounds, lots of people at work started coming up to me and telling me that I looked really good and asking how much weight I'd lost. I lose first in my face and abdomen, so it's more noticeable in the beginning than people that lose in their arms or legs first. Now, my clothes are all loose, my wedding ring is getting dangerously loose as well. I'll have to get it resized before another month has gone by or I'll end up losing it.

    Update pictures in the same pose and lighting tell the real story when we can't see the changes in the mirror!
