First, let me say that I can see a difference, and you look great!
I agree with what others are saying - when you are losing evenly (which it looks like you are) it is hard for others to see, especially those that see you every day. I also think that many people feel bad bringing up weight loss unless it is drastically different (don't want to come off as implying you looked horrible before).
I am down almost 25 lbs and have had only two mention they could see it. However, I am down two dress sizes, so I know it isn't in my head Pay attention to how YOU feel - the compliments will come soon!0 -
Definitely a difference. I've found with about 20lb loss people tend to second guess if they see something or not, so rather than be rude they keep quiet. For me people seemed to keep quiet until I lost a lot of weight (about 50lbs), but then it was so obvious I think people didn't want to say something in case it seemed dumb for them just to say something. It took going on vacation and coming back before people seemed to feel comfortable with mentioning it.
New clothes also can make a huge difference by showing off how much you've changed. Great work and best of luck on your journey!0 -
Absolutely! I see you've lost some in your chest and midsection. I imagine you may have also lost in your arms and legs, but it's hard to tell from the pics you posted.
What's important is that YOU notice. I'm a pretty small person, so even 5 pounds is something I notice on myself. However, I don't think most people notice my weight fluctuations much at all. I appreciate the fact that the people who don't mention my weight loss also don't mention my weight gains.0 -
Thank you guys! I really need to invest in new clothes because all of mine make me look like a box. but I'm so cheap, lol second hand shops are calling my name.0

Unless you tell people that you are trying to lose weight, they likely won't say anything. I am sure you probably aren't wearing the same fitted thing you are in these pictures every day, so they can't see your form. You DEFINITELY look different! Way to go!0

A few years ago I lost 20 pounds, not one of my friends noticed. I finally got so frustrated I brought it up and then they said something. Unfortunately I gained it all back plus some.0
-
It's definitely noticeable, you are shrinking without a doubt - are you wearing different clothes? Sometimes the same baggy clothes that hid our fat also hide our fat loss0

Yup....I see the difference....especially in the waist/tummy area. You are blessed with awesome boobs and carry your weight evenly. I think you'd look great at any weight but you are going to be so hot when you reach your goal. Well done!0

congrats! and don't get discouraged when people do notice and say they see your face looks thinner

Ummm...ya! You are so lucky you are losing evenly around your whole body! I've lost some weight but can't tell from the front, only when I take profile pictures. You should try all angles, front, back, and profile. It's so much fun seeing change. Imagine another 20 or so pounds!
Keep it up. Whenever you get discouraged, just look at thos pictures. They will get you right back on track0 -
STFU! I just posted a thread in the motivation section for the same thing. You look great girly, you can see a difference for sure. I'm sharing your feelings though, I'm near 30 lbs down and no one has really said anything to me if they have noticed. Even wearing new clothes that fit me better, no one has said a thing.0
-
Yep, I can absolutely tell. Good job so far! Keep it up.0
-
You're doing great!! I can tell in your waist and also what i can see of your legs in these pics. I carry a lot of weight in my legs, so I can appreciate that0
-
I can notice the difference. Its a small difference, but its there, and noticeable. you look slimmer just about all over.0
-
I had 80 pounds gone before people started to say something, besides family members that knew for sure I was losing weight.0
-
Totally noticeable!! Your midsection looks flatter and more defined. Great work. Keep it up you are so worth it.0

My measurements tell me I've only lost an inch on my thighs, but hey, I'll take it! They have definitley smoothed out from walking more though. Thank you!!0 -
I can totally see it in your thinner waist! You look great! I totally feel your pain - I am eager for more people to notice my weight loss but so far only a couple of people have mentioned it!0
