I know there is a difference but Im trying to see it and i dont think its as big of a difference as i thought there. Im 50 pounds down. The 2nd n 3rd pic are from the same night. In picture 2 its the same red shirt from picture 1. (in picutre 1 the shirt was really tight where i was super incomfortable to wear it. I know it would be a better picture if I wasnt holding something in front of me but i was at a christmas party for my work.

Any differences you notice would be great thanks!

    your face is slimer, you look smaller overal.. and i can really tell by looking at the bottom of your red shirt from the two different pics. the second picture you have a lot more room towards the bottom of your shirt.

    I hope this helps

    Your facial features are more defined, and your arms appear a lot more shapely.

    Also, take a look at your fingers, they look a whole lot slimmer!

    I know how you feel - its only recently that I've been able to see any difference, and even up to the past few weeks no-one had really noticed any change in me, now I get a lot of comments.

    Well done!

    Congratulations!

    Yes, there is a big difference... I can see it in your arms, your face and your neck. However, please note that no one noticed my first 50 pounds. I was so disappointed! I worked so hard and no one even noticed! Take heart in knowing that the second 50 pounds are amazing. Everyone thinks you are disappearing in front of their eyes. They can't believe it. It is all a matter of percentage lost. Fifty pounds off your current weight is a much larger percentage. Don't be discouraged! You will be amazed at how fast you transform if you keep at it. The first part is the hardest to stay focused, since no one seems to notice and it's so darn hard to do. But you did it! You know how! You will make this transformation happen and you will finally feel free... not so bogged down by worrying about what you look like... and able to enjoy life and others more than you imagined.

    Best of luck!

    Yep! For me it wasn't until around 50-60 pounds that it was REALLY noticable. I was wearing a different size, etc but even around 40 pounds some people didn't notice. I remember a friend said "You look different, did you change your hair" I was like NO but I lost 40 pounds jerk hahahah

    Major differences! Kudos on the weight loss! Check out the differences in pic 1 & 2. Same shirt but the neckline sits different. Your face is slimmer as are your arms. I think people don't notice the change if you are around them all the time but when you meet up with someone you haven't seen in a while the difference is more noticeable. Keep up the good work!

    Look at the neckline of your red shirt(same shirt, right?). Notice how much lower(sexy) it is in your after pic.? That is visible proof that you are taking up less space in your clothes and they are fitting better.
    Fifty pounds! Fantastic!!
  • You look amazing.. I can notice it all over.. Great job and good luck continuing your journey :)

    Yes, especially in your arms and mid section!

    I agree, especially in your arms, and a little bit on your face!! It's sad but it's hard to tell when you've got so much to lose. I find it hard to notice with my sister in law as well, I can never tell whether she has lost weight or not. But hey, keep going! soon people will be able to notice if you keep losing them at that rate!:D. And don't you worry, tummy is the last one to go... I've lost most of my weight now, and even if I got into my more than desired size... I still have a big tummy to lose and firm up.. but it all goes eventually! the key is to know YOU'RE LOSING IT!! Nevermind if you have a bad day, it won't be a bad day if you don't think of it as a bad day, just think of it as a challenge for your metabolism, it works for me!.. and I can't stop eating ice cream or pouring double cream everynow and then, perhaps every day, as well as take-away food (indians and chinese)... no fried chips though, and hardly no bakery. I avoid all those ready meals though, and we try to eat as simple as possible, with loads of vegs. And thinking that I'm doing that much to lose weight is actually working for me :D

    Gosh, I think you look a decade younger in the 2nd and 3rd picture than in the 1st picture. Maybe it''s because your hair is down and you face is thinner. Santa certainly treated you nice - I didn't get anything nearly as good as that!

    You have done amazing! Your arms, your neck line, your face! And what I see that people can't see in the pic is how much smaller you belly has gotten! That was the first thing I noticed shrinking on you! I see you regularly too so it should be less noticable to me, but its not. You did amazing in 2011 and I know you'll do even better in 2012. Enjoy all your new toys you got for christmas, they will push you through the last half of your journey! You've made it half way, no looking back now!!! :flowerforyou:

    Heck yeah, theres a difference! Way to go and keep it up!
  • I see a big difference. In the bust, shoulders (which always make ppl look heavy) mid-section. Way to go! Don't stop until you hit your goal.

    There is a big difference. In the first pic and second pic (same red shirt). Look at where the V hits and how much longer the shirt is. That will show you how much your overall size has decreased.

    Keep taking pictures and achieving your goals!!

    You are doing great :)!
