    It's totally noticeable! Great job!

    Normally people don't know how to mention this kind of thing - it's like, to say congratulations, you've lost weight they need to acknowledge that you were overweight and needed to lose it in the first place. People get tied up worrying if their compliment might sound like a backhanded insult, y'know? I never heard anything until I'd lost 4 pant sizes and 30+ pounds :laugh: but then it was like a tidal wave.

    Some people are just in there own world. I lost 70 pounds once, and most people were asking when I was going to stop losing... while my boss walked by one day, backed up , and then said ...wait...have you lost weight?! It was really hard not to comeback with a smart answer, but I just said yes thanks for noticing. You're doing great. IF they haven't said anything yet, it might just be overnight, and everyone will be asking you what you did. Keep it up.

    You definitely look a lot better in the second picture. Discarding lighting, a better angle, fit of your clothes, or as you replied "sucking it in" there are some very noticeable differences:
    1) Your arms are noticeably thinner and have a bigger difference between elbow and wrist
    2) You fingers are less noticeably large and have slimmed proportionately
    3) Your face no longer has a rounded appearance and is very noticeably thinner

    and most important:
    4) You look far more confident in the second shot

    Keep up the great work!

    I think you should also keep in mind that some people don't want to talk about what YOU'RE doing to lose weight if THEY'RE NOT DOING ANYTHING for themselves and that makes them feel guilty/insecure! I think people are worried you'll make them start exercising and eating KALE!!! (I love kale btw). I bet because you're a guy, other guys don't want to act like they notice for fear people will think it's strange they've even noticed (believe me, everyone on here who is doing what you're doing will notice). Don't let the lack of comments stop you! You're doing great!!

    Wow, way to go, you look great! Not sure why no one has said anything, they'd have to be blind not to notice.

    I feel your pain, nobody mentioned a thing to me until I was 50lbs down and then all I got was from some guy at work who said "Hey did you drop 10lbs or something?" I just smiled said 50 and kept walking. It is way more important that you take pride in what you've done and know how much better off you are that you did...Way to go!

    I think its a huge difference . congratulations!
    I also would feel bummed if nobody really says anything. I'm glad you put the topic out.
    Good luck

    yeah I'm really shocked no one has said anything! Maybe they just don't feel comfortable doing so? But don't fret, you're looking great sir.

    I've lost 42 lbs in the past three months and no one in my office has said anything except my boss...I don't know, maybe it's not that noticeable yet ;-)
    This was my case for a long time too. People commented on how my hair was growing out long before they would say anything about my weight. It wasn't until I showed up somewhere in rather form-fitting clothes that I received any comments at all.

    Losing weight is like getting pregnant. You're all excited about your good news, but people are afraid to comment on it in case it's not good news for whatever reason. Trust me, they notice. It's very noticeable. You look great!

    I agree! You look great, good job!

    I see a big difference! I would've guessed more than 25 pounds! Some people are uncomfortable discussing weight. Maybe if you brought it up, the flood gates would open...but YOU know you've done well, and WE know it, too!

    Well I am doing really well. I feel good and think I look better. I am close to 25 pounds down, another 25 and I will be very happy with myself. I am just a bit bummed no one has commented. So now I look to you guys.. ha. I am not that concerned because I do this for myself, but some positive comments would be nice to see. How long does that take? Or do people just not want to say anything? Or just not that noticeable yet? thanks folks!

    Apparently I can't read as my topic suggests.. Yikes.

    I can totally see a difference. Great job!

    People have noticed. It's very noticeable. It's just a dangerous topic, so people avoid talking about it.
    So true! You never know if someone is ill so you just don't comment. You look great by the way. Very noticeable. No more belly.

    I might have to admit that maybe I am a bit sexist... I agree with the comments here that you look great! I think though I have never complemented a man on his weight loss but I have plenty of women. I guess it never occurred to me that yes, men need a compliment every now and then too and maybe thats the deal with the other people around you :) Keep it going!
