I haven't lost a lot but my body has changed a bit already. My husband has noticed. My friends have really been great and have told me how great I look. My co-workers haven't said much...

Here's a couple interesting tidbits, thougth:

1. I've noticed that the people that see me every day haven't said much unlike people who haven't seen me in a few weeks. I think it's because the people who are with me each day can't see the difference like the others can...

2. My family (my mother and my sisters) didn't comment on it at all until I asked them (and I don't get to see them all that often). NICE. My weight has ALWAYS been obvious when it comes to my family. My sisters are naturally skinny. My mother isn't but is ALWAYS on herself about her weight and, in turn, on ME for mine. She doesn't nag but always throws these diet tips and stuff at me. Drives me crazy. So here I am - found out I was insulin resistant and decided to do Atkins - I've lost 6 pounds and two sizes in clothes - and they couldn't say 'Hey, you look great!' I had to ASK them specifically about it. Kind of upset me a little that they can be 'supportive' of me when it's obvious I'm not losing weight, but now that I am they don't have much input. And I know you can notice because others definitely are!
