Just looking for some feedback here. No one has said anything to me about looking different except the people who know I have lost a total of 24 lbs. 16 between these two pics

    Awesome work!
    Notice how your shirt is fitted at the bottom now compared to how it was before? You can really tell there's a great difference, especially on your tummy. You look great, keep going!

    And last time I went down in weight, nobody said anything to me. Until my SO told me that his mom had commented to him that "half of me seemed to have disappeared". Nobody said anything to me though, lol. I guess that's just how people work.

    Your stomach is very obviously smaller, but also your jaw/chin is more defined. Love the new hair style too!

    People are that way sometimes, they look at you without truly seeing. I would have thought you were pregnant in the first picture, no offense meant, you have definitely worked hard. You are on the right road. :):):):)

    Yes I can see it in your tummy and your face. Your tummy looks heaps smaller. Sometimes I think people are just being polite by not saying anything, or perhaps when they see us all the time they dont notice if that makes sense. Well done though, can't wait to see the next photo.

    Not for nothin' but you've gained quite a bit in the smile area. Looks good on you. :)

    And heck yes! You look slimmer through the midsection for sure.

    I read somewhere that it takes four weeks for us to notice the changes in our own bodies, eight weeks for those closest to us to begin to notice and twelve for the rest of the world to catch up. Obviously this doesn't correlate to pounds lost at all, but maybe the same idea applies.

    Also...my friend and I decided that we hate it when people tell us, "Oh my gosh, you've lost weight!" or "You look great!" because it makes us feel like they were focused on our fat before. So now, when we see people that have dropped pounds, we say "Wowww! You look so incredibly happy/healthy". Because really, isn't THAT our ultimate goal?

    Congrats on your hard work, it's paying off! :)

    Wow, lovely loss and when you doubt it just look at your frame in the door behind!!!! You can see the inches lost. Have you taken your measurements at all, if not, it is a great to see those actual inches go down.

    Oh! I didn't notice it before but...unless you're standing a lot closer to the door in the second photo (I tried to do some figuring based on your knee and feet placement but then I just felt like I was being creepy) you are standing so much taller than your first photo, too. Taller is good!
