I have lost 20 pounds the past 2 months with WW. I have recieved compliments and praise from people who know I am on the program (mostly family...a few close friends) But I want people who don't know I am on program to realize it!! I think we all need to pat ourselves on our backs, so, tell me your success story....tell me when others began to realize YOU were losing!
People started to notice at about 20 pounds, and then around 50, everyone started to notice. I'm down over 100, and lifetime, and not getting the compliments that I used to ...unless I haven't seen someone in awhile, then the compliments just fly!! Picks me up quick! I write the nice things people say down, so on the weeks that I don't here, "You look great! You've lost weight!", I can go back and read what what people have said ...it gets me through the hard times.
Geez! Ya don't have to yell! Most people who see me every day knew I was trying to lose. I think other people really started to notice around 40#. "Have you lost weight?" "Oh, just 40# or so." (drop jaw)
Now that I'm almost to 70#, I've gotten even more comments. "You have lost a TON of weight! A Ton!" "Gee thanks. Didn't know I was soooo fat."
I don't think it was very obvious when I dropped from 230 to 215. Honestly, I was still a tubbo. Be patient. The rewards are coming!
Melanie--see you are an inspiration!!
I am sorry I had to raise my voice ---but I KNOW there are people out there lurking who have fabulous stories to share!
When did people start realizing you were losing?
Okay people, come on!!!! I KNOW people are telling you how fabulous you look!!
