As of this morning, I've lost 50.4 pounds. I've been taking pictures along the way, but I honestly am not seeing much of a difference. My husband says he can definitely tell, so that helps some. I still have about 71 pounds to go, but hitting the 50 pound mark just made my day. I might post before and after pictures tonight although I'm super embarrassed of my only before picture. But anyways, I'm super happy today!

    That is awesome!!!! Keep up the good work! In time you will be able to see the difference. It takes a while for our minds to catch up with the physcial part of weight loss.

    50 pounds is a lot and you should be very proud of yourself. Keep up the great work and you will see the difference. It may hit you all at once one day. I'm so happy for you!

    Congratulations! 50 pounds is quite an accomplishment. I feel your pain, though. I've lost just a little more, and have almost the same amount left to lose as you. I can feel a big difference, and I can see some difference, but not nearly as much of a difference as I would expect to see. Hang in there! Whatever you are doing is working. Maybe the second half of the weight loss will appear more drastic. Who knows?

    I can definitely feel a difference. I'm not out of breath nearly as much as I used to be and I have so much more energy. I didn't measure at the beginning, but I did a couple weeks ago and I'll measure again in another couple weeks. The other day I brought out a pair of jeans that I wore at the beginning of the year and slipped them on over the pants I was already wearing and they were still too big, so I know change is happening, but I think y'all are right and my brain just needs to catch up with my body.
