    Do you really care what colleagues think. Forget them and keep up the good work.

    Your co-workers as awful people. YOUR WEIGH LOSS IF VERY NOTICEABLE! Especially since you are a man and don't have other lumps.

    You can tell from the face that you lost weight. Good job! When people see you everday they won't notice the difference as much.

    I can see a difference, perhaps they haven't noticed as they see you all the time, you should try and find people you've not seen in a while.

    I can see a difference. I wouldn't worry too much about what your coworkers say. You have to keep in mind that they see you almost everyday. So the changes per day/week is gradual. It is a lot different when there is a decent span of time when seeing someone or a before/after picture.

    Who cares what any of them say/think. You are doing this for you....not for them. Be proud of your accomplishment.

    You can definitely tell you have lost weight! You can see it in your face!! Dont listen to those colleagues! They are probably just jealous and trying to put you down! Dont stop what you are doing. You are looking great!

    There is a huge difference between the pictures. You just keep at your goal. Dont worry about negative comments.

    A real difference! However, sometimes when people see us every day they don't notice the change. Great accomplishment!

    I can certainly see a difference, but a lot of times people who see you everyday don't notice those changes until you've lost ALOT. I think it took until I had lost around 50 pounds before people started commenting on it. Then it goes in spurts. Thankfully I've hit a new round of people noticing and commenting, because I've hit a bit of a plateau, which can be discouraging. It will come! I don't know if it is the same with guys, but I found that people noticed more when I started buying new clothes and wearing those instead of just my old clothes fitting looser.

    Same with me! My coworkers didn't notice until I lost about 50lbs--and they noticed because I too started wearing tighter fitting clothes and more dresses and skirts than I used too.

    Great work so far.

    This is what my trainer told me when I first got started:

    It takes about 3 months for you to feel different
    6 months for other people to notice (and mention it)
    And 9 months for you to see it

    Change your clothes.

    Got for a more fitted shirt. The t-shirt hides it all. (talking from experience here).

    Then again it's a shame you work with people who are so clearly ignorant. :grumble:


    Good effort on the loss.
