Just had to share as no-one I know cares, but a friend finally noticed my weight loss! I was so pleased I could have hugged her (she's not a touchy person either so would have been v. scared!!)

I've gone from 12st 10lbs to 10st since December and not one person has mentioned it, so I've been getting a bit disheartened.

I feel much better now :-)

    congratulations. I'm not sure how much weight that is, but your hard work and determination is paying off. I have lost 9 lb in one month and am feeling happy over it, but it feels so small for the effort. Still it is better then gaining.

    I work as a mail carrier and one of my customers told me Friday that I look great. It felt great to hear that, especially coming from a man.

    That is awesome & wonderful! Don't ever get discouraged - I've only lost about 9lbs in the last 7 months, but by working out I changed my entire body composition: people at my work just started to notice as well - it's a great feeling & it keeps you motivated to keep going :flowerforyou:

    SWEET! I know I am excited to see my brothers and sisters and their families come into town in a few days and they have not seen me a 1 year! I am silently hoping they will notice, which they better cuz I was a size 12 and now I am mostly a 6, but some 7/8's fit good too (depends on the brand). But either way that is a BIG difference to me.

    YAY TO ALL OF US!!!

    It's such a great feeling when someone notices the results of your hard work. My family doesn't say much either but my doctor and his secretary noticed yesterday and it felt great!

    Keep up the good work!

    I completely understand!! I am a stay-at-home-mom so it's not like I have a job to go to where people see me changing. It's so discouraging without recognition!! A couple friends and family have noticed so it's nice getting a little pat on the back.
