    Mom mentioned something when I was 30lbs down but I was losing weight with her. No one else noticed. Gained 10lbs back though. Just gotta start working real hard again.

    Around 10-15lbs... And now that I'm down to 21 (so far) I've heard comments at both workplaces, school and with the family. I must say, it does definitely make me happy to hear that!
  • I read once that when you start and stick to a new healthier lifestyle it takes 2 weeks for you to notice a difference, 2 MORE weeks for friends and family to notice a difference, and 2 MORE weeks (6 total weeks) for the rest of the world to notice. It really made me think and was motivation to stick to it for me. Good Luck!!

    My mother noticed at 14 pounds. The rest of the world saw it at 16 pounds. My husband is oblivious, and just insists that he never noticed that I'd ever gained anything, lol.

    Between 15 and 20 I had a few people say something and even more people said something around 25 pounds.

    I haven't had anyone comment unless I mention it first - then they're like "Oh, yeah! I can totally tell!". :/ Maybe another 10 lbs or so will do it.
