Congratulations on the weight loss! I know what you mean about not being able to tell. I want my weight loss to be super noticeable, but so far no comments. At least I can tell...not so much by looking in the mirror (I never used to look!) but by the way my clothes fit and being able to wear clothes I haven't worn in years. Can't wait to see you hit your next milestone. Way to go!

CONGRATS sounds like you're doing great! Even though it may seem that no one can tell what about you? Can you tell? Don't you feel so much better now that you've lost that weight?!

I know I do- I wouldn't want to go back to my old habits or weight.

I wish you the best on your journey in reaching your goals!

Are you dressing to show that you are 18 pounds down? It will make a huge difference!!! My best friend just came back from a 3 month vacation I lost 35 pounds during this time, so I was for sure she was going to notice.. .but she didn't. Finally, I said can you tell I lost weight and she looked puzzled and said yeah a little.. ( You know that look like no I really can't tell, but I'm being your nice friend!!!) Then I pulled up my oversized shirt and her face lite up!!! She was like OMG and then I took off my head covering and she seen my face more clear and my neck area and was so happy...

So do dress for your size and see what happens. Lesson learned!

Good suggestion, Amanda

Wearing closer fitting clothes will show your losses where wearing the same baggy ones will not.

It will start to show...it took a while for it to show on me (especially to my eyes), but after a while it becomes very obvious!

Congrats on your success so far
