Today as I was loading my kids in the car my neighbor asked me if I had lost weight :) He said he almost didn't recognize me. I know he was just being kind but the fact that he noticed I had lost weight at all made me smile. It's only 15 lbs and I'm stuck in between pant sizes right now, so I know all my hard work is paying off, I just couldn't really see it in anything other than my face yet. Made my day knowing someone else could already :D

    It's funny you say that because I've decided not to mention my weight loss endeavor to many people because I want them to notice themselves. I'm looking forward to being asked if I lost weight soon enough without me prompting a "look at me". I know for me that may take a little longer 'cause I'm much heavier but looking foward to it none the less.

    Lucky! I have lost over 100 pounds and while many people do acknowledge my achievement, my mother in law hasn't said a thing! Haha congratulations on your loss and keep up the hard work mama!

    I was certain no one would notice until I dropped at least 30 lbs or so. I was taken a little aback when he said something, like you really noticed??? lol

    Last summer I went home to Oklahoma for my grandma's memorial and saw family I hadn't seen in over 3 years. I walked up to meet my aunt and uncle at a travel stop we'd agreed to meet at. They walked right past me!

    When I said "Aunt Cindy!" she turned, squinted, and said "Tammy? Oh my God--you're so skinny!!!"

    Yeah. :) lol
