    I can definitely see a difference...dont give up!! The first places I lost it were the less noticable places, like my face, chest, and shoulders. You've come so far! Keep pushing yourself and one day, you'll look in the mirror, and not even recognize yourself! Great job on the progress you've made so far--you should be proud:):)

    I see the difference in your face! I have the same amount to lose as you do and I have also lost 35 pounds. I know you can probably see it in other places too. I have lost from a size 24 to a size 18 pants. I didn't even realize that I had dropped from 20 to 18 until I tried on some old pants. Surprise!! Check it out!

    Oh, I definitely see it! Keep up the good work. I hear a lot of people saying they can't see a difference in themselves, but other people can. You're doing great, don't get discouraged!!!

    There is DEFINITELY a difference! I can see it in your face!
    Have you ever seen a 35lb piece of meat? It doesn't matter what you can see... How you feel after being 35 pounds lighter is what really matters!
    Keep up the great work!!

    Like the others, I can totally see the difference! Way to go :drinker:

    Keep taking those pictures and start measuring as well. It's good advice to wear the same clothes, and maybe take some side shots as well.

    try to carry around a toddler all day, they weigh about thirty five pounds. this will help you to realize how far you have come. did this with canned food for ww mtg. had twenty lbs of cans and carried it for ten min. thought i was gonna die! you look great, can really see it in your face, keep it up. you dont realize how much weight that is unless you pick it up again. i think they do this on the biggest loser also.

    Congrats on your loss - 35 pounds is a good amount of weight! You can tell in your face definitely. Even though you may not think you look much different your overall health is benefiting from your loss. Keep going and very soon you will start to really notice:)

    Your face definitely looks a lot different! I know how you feel though, I've lost 15lb, and I thought that a stone was so much weight to lose, but now I've lost it I can't see any difference. My thinking is, though, now I need to work extra hard so that I can see a difference! I think it's because we see ourselves every day, so we don't see any sudden changes. Keep at it though, 35lb is a huge achievement!!

    We are own worst critic! I bet people around you have been noticing! I certainly could tell! I've lost 38 pounds in 12 weeks and I still see the fat me. But when I undress and really look at myself. I see that my butt no longer has that shelf effect (LOL), my undies that were all stretched out, no longer fit. My bras had to go in the trash as my boobs kept falling out underneath. LOL So I had to admit, yeah my body was changing! And so is yours.

    We didnt just arrive here over night, nor will we arrive at our goal weights over night! But every single day is a step in the right direction. I hadnt worn jeans in years.....2 days ago I found the last pair I had wore and put them on and now they are too lose and baggy. So things are changing but it's hardest for us to see our ownselves in the best of light. We've been made to feel unworthy because we are "fat".

    Own those 35 pounds you lost and be proud and keep on the good path! And do not beat yourself up!

    I see it in your face and arms a lot! We are our own worst enemies. You got this! I can be addicted to the scale lol the only left over part of my eating disorder I had. Measure yourself that is my goal today...You look like you are doing fabulous to me. Keep it up.

    When I first started losing weight, my husband and I did it together. We were both down around 30 lbs and people were complimenting the heck out of him...and me nothing. When I hit about 50 lbs down, people started noticing.

    I bet your clothes are looser and you are feeling better. Be patient...it will come
