This is so true.
Sometimes when I am waiting in line (gas station, grocery store, etc), guys will just start talking to me. I still find it weird because they didn't do it before. I am always polite but it's still a little insulting because I know it is because I'm smaller.

It depends on the person, I worked at a place where I wore a uniform so 10 pounds off people were noticing because my uniform was getting baggier on me. I'm sure if I had a job where I wasn't wearing a uniform people wouldn't have noticed as much. But even now at my last 20 pounds inches are dropping the scale is a jerk but people are noticing I'm getting smaller. The only person not noticing is myself. I think it really just depends.

i have been wondering when people will notice as well! My husband hasn't commented at all--no one has! ive went down 31 lbs. I have went down one size so i figure maybe when I lose another 20 lbs someone will say something! LOL or at least I hope they do

haha yeah. I mean I've lost almost 60 pounds, and while most people I know have definitely noticed at this point, I ran into one of my friends for the first time in awhile the other day and after we'd been together for about an hour looked at me and was like, "You're looking a little skinnier. What, have you just been working out a little bit or something?" I was just kinda like... heh. yeah.... But yeah, definitely it takes time, and I think some people are even a little embarrassed to say something at first, so don't sweat it!
