    How do you not see the difference? We're always hardest on ourselves. I can tell you that I definitely see a HUGE difference, especially in your abdomen. I was having a hard time noticing my weight loss too despite the scale telling me I was losing, so I started tracking my measurements to get a solid idea of where my weight was coming off from. Maybe that would work for you, also. Great job! You look wonderful.

    I agree with this! I am shocked that you can't see the change in yourself, your abdomen looks half the size from the side and so much flatter. You look fantastic, congratulations on making your halfway point! :D

    Big congrats!

    I'm partying with you this weekend, as I just dropped to a BMI of 29.9 today myself.

    I'll bet your clothes fit better! You look like you lost more than what the scale says. Have you been working out a lot also?

    Mostly just hiking, walking and biking. I've been trying to jog/run, but I'm terrible at it!

    :bigsmile: YAY!!! I can sure tell a difference from your pictures. Excellent job!

    I'm encouraged by you posting this. I know the BMI is not perfect, but I too look forward to being "overweight" - but hope to pass through that stage briefly. (I started out "morbidly obese" :blushing: ).

    Great job! I had to giggle at your positive approach to the BMI scale! I feel this way too, it'll be nice to just be overweight and not called obese. And then of course, onto even healthier numbers. Your pictures are very inspiring!

    Fantastic! I know it's just a typo but reading "scare" instead of "scale" cracked me up. Some days it is! :)

    Ha ha! Freudian slip! :wink:
