Maybe it;s just a mental thing but, has anyone lost a few pounds but still feel like you've lost nothing at all. Or still "feel fat". I'd love to know if it's just me or if it's a normal feeling to have when you really want to lose weight and get healthy.

    Nope it's normal I think everyone feels that way, at least I do it will take a long time and allot of weight for me to see it myself.

    **raises hand**

    I know that I have but I guess I feel like a failure because I STILL have not made my goal....32 more pounds to go.

    I still feel exactly the same as I did before, to the extent that the looks and comments from colleagues and friends confuse me for a minute until I remember that I actually look quite different than I did a few months ago.

    But then, I not losing the weight for appearance reasons, and I don't have a decent mirror at home..
