    Measurements are good but I'm a very visual person and I needed to see results. I didn't see any when looking in the mirror so I took new pics and this is what I saw. It was the motivation to keep going this was only 14lbs different first pic at 174 second was 160.

    I can see less back fat, a more defined waist and a shrinking muffin top!!!


    OK trying this again

    Work blocks EVERYTHING, so I can't see your pics, but I'm going to start trying these too :] Congrats on your loss!!

    Take pictures. I started noticing around the 15 lb mark, but the measurements were clear long before that.

    I think I'll do both pics and measurements. The scale says I'm down, I just don't feel like I look any smaller. Maybe pics will help with that.

    I think it depends on how much you weigh. Some people it takes about 15-30 pounds. When I was really heavy it wasn't til I lost 30 pounds. Measurements are a great thing. You will get excited when you see the inches being trimmed off around your waist and hips..... try that.

    That's a good point. I know I have a lot to lose and quite honestly, I don't know what I'd look like not heavy because I've literally been heavier my whole life pretty much. I'm excited to start seeing the differences for sure!!
