    I've lost 25 lbs since Jan 5th 2009 and it really makes you feel good when someone mentions how much you have lost.

    I completely agree. Tons of people I know are noticing and telling me so. But last week a woman on the stairmaster next to me, who I didn't know, told me that she'd seen me in the gym on numerous occassions and that I "looked great"!! It was such an amazing feeling to meet a new person who had noticed this. I saw her the other day and she gave me a big smile and a motivational comment like "doing great!" Between the support from people around me and people on MFP, I know I'll stick to my guns and lose this weight!

    I've started to get that. It's great but if one more person tells me I'm just going to shrink away to nothing I'm going to hurt them, I've got 41 lbs to go!

    Monday evening at my WW meeting the leader kept looking at me and finally interrupted her discussion with the group with the following: I keep looking at you because I am really noticing just how much weight you've lost. As many of you know Mary Rose here has lost 129 pounds, but for some reason tonight I am just really noticing it on her, especially in the face.

    What could I say but "thank you" ...

    I've been going to WW for 2 years, with this same leader for that whole time. And when someone you see on a regular basis really notices, then you know that you're making progress!

    So I congratulate you on your 'notice' too!

    No one has noticed on me yet, but I do know what that feels like. A few years ago, I was doing WW and lost about 40lbs. I had a really shy, big bear of a man, for a boss and he told me how good I looked. It was such a compliment coming from him because I really respected and looked up to this man.

    Can't wait till people start noticing.

    The people that know I am trying to lose weight always tell me I look thinner but I think they are just trying to be motivational and supportive. I still love hearing it though!!!

    My sister noticed at about 15lb. A lot of people started making comments lately. Sunday a lady at church told me it was time to go shopping for new clothes. :laugh:
