Wow. It is definately noticable in the picture!
I found it was around 30 pounds that people started to notice. When you are bigger to start with it takes more pounts off to be a marked difference.
I am sure people have noticed. Some people who comment now say they are afraid they would offend me by commenting on my weight.. lol. And I do find it a little embarrassing when they ask how much I've lost. .. that I'm still way over weight after losing 43 pounds.. that I ever had that much extra weight to begin with!.. But I'm ok with it. Not a big deal. I like it when people acknowledge my efforts because it has NOT been easy! :-00 -
YOU LOOK GREAT!
Give people the benefit of the doubt- maybe they noticed or thought they noticed but didn't want to be mistaken. Or maybe they're trying to be sensitive and let you bring it up first. Hey maybe the people in your life are struggling with their own weight issues and it's hard for them to talk about weight at all. Or maybe they've been stressed or panicked or otherwise self absorbed.
I'm sure your support team wants to be there for you. Take the first step and tell them you've been working really hard to lose weight. People will usually respond in kind with a "I thought you were looking slim!"
Regardless of their response, you are looking fantastic! And you always have a cheerleading squad here :drinker:0 -
You've gotta stop hanging out with blind people if you expect compliments OP. All joking aside, you're looking great man. Keep up the good work.0

With all the positive feedback since posting your topping, did we all turn your frown upside down?
You have no idea! You folks have been soooo motivating! I appreciate each and every one of your comments. Thank You!0 -
I can't believe no one has said anything to you - you look like you have lost weight to me

Learn to take a compliment, as I'm sure you will be getting many more. Just say "thank you". You look great and it's definitely noticeable.0

I wonder, when you're not particularly young any more (like both of us), if people think it's possible we're sick or something rather than losing weight to get in shape. Looks to me like you're doing really well. Keep it up!
^THIS, plus if they note that you've lost weight, they have to admit they noticed you were overweight. And then that they might be overweight and need to do something too, because if you succeeded....0 -
There is ABSOLUTELY a difference! You are right....you ARE doing really well!! Keep up the good work!! CHEERS!0
-
I can't believe that's only 25 lbs! Looks like 50! You look great. Keep up the good work!0

I'm surprised no one said anything to you....I see a huge difference...25 lbs. is a big loss on you! You look great!0

It helps people to "notice" if you get some nice fitting jeans and a new shirt to match.
For me personally, I notice IRL if am not around the person much. But if I see the same person every day (like work or whatever), then its really noticeable when they wear better-fitting clothes or new stuff. :bigsmile:
And yes I can definitely tell you've lost weight. :happy:0 -
You look great after 25 pounds lost!
Perhaps folks would notice if you bought
some clothes that FIT your new body!!!
Best wishes!0 -
Dang, your friends may need their eyes checked. You can totally see the loss. Good work!0
-
Seriously no one has said anything to you?
You completely lost your gut!!!
Congratulations and keep on working! Looks to be a lot more than 25 lbs! No idea what you'll look like with another 25 down!
I agree that it looks like you've lost more than just 25 lbs. Remember that you're doing this for YOU. You're doing GREAT. Keep up the good work!0 -
Is everyone you hang out with completely blind? You look amazing!0

Being in the healthcare field, I can see why sometimes people may be afraid to say something about weight loss. Obese is bad but i always joked that I would stay plump in case I get put in a nursing home someday and then I'd lose weight no matter what.
Sometimes weight loss, in our minds, can be linked to something negative. Did you tell people your goals and what you wante dto accomplish? If not, they may think you have an illness like cancer) or something. I learned a long time ago... I asked a lady when her baby was due and she said "I'm NOT pregnant! She had liver failure and all her bump was in her abdomen from ascites. My bad..
You look FANTASTIC and have done really well. I've never even seen your pics before today. Great job. Amazing difference 25# makes, huh?? I think of it as extra turkeys hanging onto me (you are 2 turkeys down and 2 to go !!! 0 -
Wow I can see the loss you look GREAT. Keep up the Great work.Seriously no one has said anything to you?
You completely lost your gut!!!
Congratulations and keep on working! Looks to be a lot more than 25 lbs! No idea what you'll look like with another 25 down! 0 -

-
WOW, what a great transformation!0

First of all, you look WONDERFUL and of course people have noticed, but guys are weird, they don't comment like women do. You should be PROUD OF YOURSELF and I certainly hope you FEEL BETTER yes? That is why this site is wonderful, you get tons of support where no where else you can find it!:drinker: 0
-
I can totally see a difference! Keep up the good work! Sometimes people just don't know what to say.0
-
You're looking great and there is a huge difference for sure. Maybe if you're around the same people every day, they don't notice because the change is gradual. Hit up some people you haven't seen in a few months! I'm sure they'll notice off the bat. Keep it up!
I agree! You look great!0 -
So many people before me have said it but you totally deserve it. You, sir, are a freaking ROCKSTAR! You look incredible and know you will be noticed if you keep up this incredible work! :drinker:
Cheers to your continued endeavors and thank you for being such an inspiration!0 -
Ok, once I lost 60 pounds and no one said anything to me except my sister. First let me start by saying I saw your pictures and the difference is extremely noticeable. Now let me say this, the people who saw me every day (just like I saw myself every day) never said anything. I didn't really realize the difference much myself because I was seeing it on a daily basis. My sister, on the other hand, who hadn't really hung out with me for many months (because of differing work schedules) almost had a heart attack. She had gone a good 5 or 6 months without seeing me so when she did see me the difference was crazy. Either certain people just don't want to lift you up because they feel like that will make them feel bad because they haven't done what you have or they just haven't noticed because they see you every day. But, you look great!0
