I Love this Feeling!

Options
I love it when I am eating right and exercising. I feel so good about myself. I can lose 5 lbs and feel as if I lost 40 lbs! I walk around and wonder how many people are noticing that I've lose weight. Its like I have a new found sense of pride...then I look in the mirror and remind myself that I really don't look any different. It's such a great feeling though, and I dont want it to go away so I'm going to continue eating right and exercising and before long people and myself WILL be able to tell I've lose weight!

    I know what you mean...I wonder why I waited so long to do this!! No one has noticed I have lost yet either, but our day is coming!!

    Enjoy it! You earned it! Keep up the good work. And FYI, people probably have noticed or will notice soon by they still may not say anything. I've found that losing weight can make people jealous and even almost hostile so don't you worry about anyone noticing! Enjoy that feeling of accomplishment and pride! Good Job!

    I also have lost 13 lbs and a few people have noticed. I still have 50-60 lbs to go but hey we have made a great start, don't you think? I also feel like I have lost a lot more. I just "feel" better. Cheers for us! :drinker:

    I'm almost at 20 pounds, and so far no one other than people who already knew I was trying to lose weight have said anything! But, that's okay! I feel so great, just like you said, so it's all good!

    Congrats to you - and keep it up!!

    I feel the same way!!! I've felt SO proud of myself for eating pretty well this week and exercising everyday and then today I lost 1 lb!! So I know I'm doing it right and it's working and it's SUCH a rewarding feeling.
