when did you notice a difference???

thats quite a weight loss, especially considering you didnt start off too heavy, youve done great, keep it up.x
im surprised you havent noticed a difference in your clothing though hun, were they pretty tight to start?? and fitting ok now? ive lost 9lbs, but havent changed clothe size yet, but my clothes are definatly more comfortable. im the same though, no one has noticed my loss apart from my 13 year old daughter! maybe a lil more, and it will really start to show. good luck xx

I started out just over 300, and it was probably at about 30 lbs lost that people really started to notice. Nowadays, I can usually count on a comment from someone if I haven't seen them in a few months. As long as you are losing weight and getting healthier, just keep with it and the recognition will come with time. You may even start to get sick of it eventually. I haven't reached that point yet

I think the most important thing is to realize that you are doing this for yourself. That is really what got me on the right path and has helped me stick with it. When the praise starts rolling in, it definitely feels good, but you should be proud of yourself right now for what you have already accomplished, and continue to work hard.

It's probably different for different people... I had a lot of weight to lose (still working on it), and so at the beginning when I had lost 15 pounds I thought it made a BIG difference, but nobody said all that much about it then. For me, it was probably after about 25 pounds that people started commenting.

Also, some people simply don't comment even if they do notice... either afraid of saying the wrong thing or just not bothering to say anything at all. We all have different people in our lives who will react differently, though, so it's not going to be a perfect number that starts the compliments coming. Some people will be more encouraging than others, and some people will surprise you by how much they support you!

Whatever your situation, 16 pounds lost is an AMAZING accomplishment, and sometimes our friends don't say the things that we want to hear when we want to hear them. You WILL get the encouraging compliments that you deserve because it's a tough journey that takes commitment, and you are doing a really good job of it

When i lost 4st with weight watchers people seemed to start to notice when i had lost 2 stone. I felt my clothes were looser before that but thats when everyone at work started to notice.

Did you take pictures and your measurements? I still can't tell in pictures but my measurements have changed. Also, I bought a smaller size pants and brought them home to motivate myself to fit into them. When I got home and tried them on...they fit! But I would have sworn that my old size was just right. Maybe go to a store and try on the next size down and see if they fit. No one has said anything to me about losing weight either so don't let it get you down. You are doing awesome!!! : )

It look about 40 pounds before anyone noticed, then every 10 after that people would remark about how amazing it looked like I was doing... now it's just plain fun to watch people's reaction to my change (if they know me) and what's hilarious is that people that don't know me or didn't know me before, just look at me like I'm a workout phenom and we talk about their fitness program vs mine, food, supplements, etc...

You too will get to the point where feeling good feels good and big or small, people will be judgemental no matter what and haters are gonna hate on you... just love where you are and what you do, the rest is irrelevant!!!

I think it depends on your body... I hardly lost anything before people started noticing but I am tiny so a little extra weight looks like a lot on me.
Keep going and eventually you'll get into those dresses!!
