I just want to say, I bought jeans THREE sizes smaller today. I got all teary-eyed in the dressing room. I haven't been this size for around 8 years. My husband has been losing with me, and actually felt guilty getting smaller jeans, until I convinced him. THEN, leaving the store, we saw an old friend. I bragged about how much hubby had lost, and she said, "WOW, I was just noticing," but when hubby said I had lost a ton too, she said, "oh. that's great." I am three pant sizes smaller, and she says, "oh, that's great." Oh well. I am happy in my jeans. And I will just be happy for me, FOR HER. I am wearing my new jeans to work on Tuesday (denim day). So there. I am half way to goal. :happy:

    congratulations! And don't worry about anyone else noticing anything.... if you can look in the mirror and smile back at yourself for how you feel about yourself and your accomplishments; that's all that matters. I'm proud for you!!!!!

    Remember - it's all about you right now. :-)

    Congratulations! I know JUST how you feel about that lady not even noticing your weightloss!
    My step daughter came for a visit, and we hadn't seen her in the two months I've been losing on this site (14 lbs. so far!) and she never even said one word about it!
    I know that 14 pounds isn't a ton, but hey, everyone at my work, who see me every day, has been complimenting me left and right. So I figured for sure my step daughter would say SOMETHING! But, just like what happened to you, NOTHING!
    Oh well, you feel great, same as I do, so that's really all that matters in the long run!

    Your old friend's comment, was probably more about her than about you. You'll walk a little prouder on Tues. knowing the jeans look great. How wonderful that both you and hubby are losing weight together. Congratulations, enjoy your success!

    Good for you:drinker: Keep up the great work. I would much rather measure my sucess by getting new clothers that what the scale says. Can't wait to buy new smaller jeans too.:smile:

    Ive noticed that when I lose a lot of weight most people close to me tell me I did great and notice before I do, but once I notice Im down some sizes and I tell someone, unless they are good friends they say the same things your friend said. Dont let it bother you. As long as you know your getting to your goal and you feel better who cares what anyone says :drinker: Congrats on going down 3 sizes!
