Last night I was at my moms and grabbed a pair of black dress pants in a size 12 that I haven't been able to get on in like 5 years... THEY FIT!!!! I'm so very excited I've lost 18 pounds so far and am excited to keep going. Will be glad when people start noticing!!!

    That's great! I LOVE the feeling I get when I can put on clothes that haven't fit for so long. Congrats!

    Sometimes they notice and are afraid to say anything. Too many people hear "Wow you've lost weight" as "Geeze you used to be fat" and so people become afraid to mention it unless they know you are trying. I had a conversation a couple of weeks ago with my instructor at the gym because my son's baseball schedule was interferring with classes and I wanted her opinion on what else I should do when I can't get to the class I am used to. I told her I didn't want my weight loss to be interrupted by baseball. She then said she was wondering how much I had lost and thought I was looking good but didn't ask because she has had a bad experience in the past with telling someone how wonderful they looked with loosing weight only to find out they weren't doing it on purpose, the person was very sick and it was very upsetting.

    So be sure.. they notice... :)

    Great job! Unfortunately I recently released some skinny clothes that I forgot that I had :(
    Oh well, guess I'll just have to shop more!

    They all notice - The most important person to notice is YOU. Recently I fit back into a beautiful pair of slacks and did a happy dance alone in my closet. Just getting back into them was all I needed :happy:

    Just go in and adjust your starting weight to the weight you were when you started. I put mine in the day before my initial weight entry just so I could see where I really was when I started.

    Great job by the way!! Yay!

    I went to settings but the only thing I could see was changing my height and current weight and my goals can't find where to change my starting weight..
