I didn't notice any changes for the first three or so. I just kept track of the what I was losing. Then after my third week I could really see some changes with my clothes and how they fit.

It sucks not having support from those who you call your friends. It seems that most of the people here try to help everyone and to keep positive. Most people here are here for the same reason you are here. To find support from people who are going through the same things we are going through. Good luck in your journey.

When you log your exercise, you should watch how many calories it says you burned. I have found that what MFP says vs what the treadmill says are a big difference.
