I've joined WW and have lost 6 pounds but wasn't really FEELING the loss yet, yesterday 2 of my coworkers asked me to turn sideways and whooped that my profile was really changing! It was just the boost I needed to get through a dinner out without blowing it!
Sometimes it's really hard to see changes in ourselves. Pictures are really annoying to take but they are handy motivators to show how far you've come.
Oh I absolutely get what your saying...some girl at my work didn't even know I have been trying to lose weight and she came over to my desk and said "someones lost alot of weight!" I love HER!!!! She made my whole day!!! And then the very next day another girl from my work commented on how "skinny" I looked!!!! I told them both they were getting great presents for xmas this year =)
