    30-40 lbs for me also! That's w/ me needing to lose 150 total lbs in the beginning.

    About -30lbs. It all depends on how much you have to loose to begin with.

    20 pounds. I lose it in my face first, and that's where people notice it.

    I think it's highly dependent on each person, I sometimes see progress pics where people have lost 50 lbs or something and I wouldn't be able to tell the difference honestly, if I saw them in real life (I'm also terrible at telling people's weight though...).
    As long as the weight went down, that was all that mattered to me.

    I lost around 15 lbs in a summer.
    Four good friends noticed the loss then.
    My family didn't truly notice anything until I came back home from university for Christmas break another 33-ish lbs lighter.

    I had lost 70lbs, and not one person from school noticed. During winter break, i lost another 20. EVERYBODY noticed. Guess it was due to the fact that they saw me everyday

    Yeah I think seeing someone everyday makes it harder to notice, but that's crazy that they didn't notice after 70 pounds. Great work, btw!

    One or two said something around 30-40 pounds loss. Then I got a huge compliment when I had reached the 60 pound mark. It was frustrating when you you were almost as round as you are tall and no one seems to notice that you finally are getting a waist. Some think its rude to say something. Others no matter how good you are doing will never have nothing good to say and if they do comment they have negativity to spill. I had one person say I will just gain it back.

    About the same... really, when I bought new, smaller clothes, which happened after I'd lost about 30-35 lbs.

    Mine is at the 38 pound mark. That's how much I lost, and just yesterday was the day everyone started really commenting all at once about it. The fact that I was wearing clothes that actually fit instead of my super baggy ones probably helped too.

    Mine was at 40lbs lost - some people said oh no he just had a haircut - others said its a bit more than that - what's your secret I was asked - told them lots of walking - CICO that's the trick
