    I can see a difference. In your face and also your thighs! Keep up the good work. And don't get discouraged.

    It may be the light, but I can also see it in your chest! Good job!

    How many lbs have you lost? 21 days is about 3 weeks. In 3 weeks, most people can only lose about 3-6 lbs, which isn't enough of a weight change to see in a picture (unless someone is very thin).

    I have lost 22 lbs total in 9 weeks, but I didn't take pictures at the beginning. Yes its about 3 week difference in between those pictures.

    So how many lbs did you lose between those 2 pictures- 7 lbs?

    You're not going to be able to see major changes until it's a larger percentage of your total weight. People didn't start noticing my weight loss until I had lost about 25 lbs.

    Your thighs have definitely shrank! I see a little possible shrinking in your arms, too. Keep it up! Remember that not all body parts lose fat at the same rate. Your legs may lose faster than your belly, but the belly will catch up at some point!

    Props on whatever weight you lost. I don't see to much in general, but the hips of thighs for sure.

    Measure. Your eyes aren't always reliable when judging your own body.

    I agree with this. I just took pics after losing 20 pounds from 165 ->145, and I am 5'5'', and honestly I saw NO difference between my before/after pictures (neither did my spouse)... but my tape measure shows I am losing all over.
    Don't get discouraged because some people lose body fat more evenly distributed throughout the body and it may take a while to notice it, rather than it coming off in one area only.
