I have only been at this for a month and a half, and have lost many inches, and only 7lbs...BUT look at the difference in my face! I was feeling bummed that progress has been slow lately, but this is a good reminder that while the scale doesn't change that your body is still changing!!

Hope to encourage a few folks on here, keep your chin up!! <3

    This is exactly the same thing that happened to me! I went down only 6lbs feeling frustrated, but saw it immediately in my face. 13lbs later and now my butt is looking good. lol!!

    Great job! You always lose weight in your face first because its one the last places that your body resorts to storing it.

    You look great!!!! I can see a nice change in your face. I have a fat face until I get into the low 120's so I am pretty used to it but I LOVE it when it's noticeable!
