Also, I think a lot of us (I know I do) have a misconstrued view of ourselves. By that, I mean I think I look "fat" no matter what it seems. So, it might be that as well.

I didn't see any changes in myself until I got up to 23lbs. lost and got a big difference at 32lbs. lost. Don't get discouraged, keep going because it is working...afterall you lost 11lbs!

I've lost about 15 lbs and I'm still in an 18, but they're looser-not uniformly looser, but a little looser. What I'm really noticing is my fingers being thinner and now my collarbone is more accentuated. I seem to lose from the upper part way faster than from the lower part.

I wish I lost weight like how you do. My bottom goes faster than the top. I have problem arms.

Oh I always have wings-it's the boobs that go first-the last time I lost weight my bra size went from a 46D to a 38B/C! I was kinda upset because I didn't mind being large-chested, it balanced the bottom! I'm very much a pear shaped goddess!

Could you compare a current picture with one before you started losing weight? It's hard for me to see changes in myself in the mirror (in my case, hard to notice all the weight I had put on) but when I looked at pictures of myself I could really tell the difference.

Ditto! And also your clothes will start to feel looser too. Inches count as well as pounds too.

it takes time to notice a change because you see yourself everyday. Try measuring yourself that's what helped me notice a change.
