    I didn't say a word to anyone and patiently waited till someone said something, happened for the first time at -22 lbs for me. :) Next comment I got was at -30 lbs and now at -44lbs everyone notices. :) Good luck!

    Mine has to be 15-20. Here at work people were either complimenting me or crucifying me............ I really struggled for quite awhile with it. But I'm back on track now. You can't make me feel guilty for getting healthier.

    Fifty. Pounds.

    I noticed right away, though, and that's all that really matters :)

    I think between 10-15 to me but i am very open about my weight loss journey here at work and I think they do it to motivate me. as for people in my family i have not gotten a compliment yet except i look happy (happy is not thinner but i will take it)

    For me a lot of people I work with knew I was trying to lose weight, and the comments started about 15 lbs down, weather they really could tell or not. But now I am 61 lbs down and every day I get a comment from one or another of my co workers... its so nice to have my hard work paying off.

    30 lbs- people at the gym started coming up to me saying I looked great, and when I told them I had twins two months prior to that their mouths droppeddddd.... I'm still wearing my stretchy pants and big shirts I was wearing when I was 200lbs... they were tight then but super loose now. I plan to really wow people at the gym when I walk into the gym with tight spandex pants & muscles.... BAM! 15 more lbs =)

    Oddly, when I was at 255, nobody said anything. At about the 220 mark, people started calling me fat. Don't ask me what happened.

    Glad it is working well for everyone else!
