Do you recoginze the subtle changes?

Subtle, nothing. You look great! What a difference 10 lbs will make, huh? Keep up the good work.

Definitely!! You look wonderful! Great smile too btw I love your avatar lol

I appreciate your kind words. I'm glad that you can notice a difference. This weight loss thing is hard work! It has especially been hard the last couple of weeks. I've been working my butt off more than I ever have when it comes to exercising. I can say that I have seen a few changes in my body (stomach doesn't potrude as much) and my energy level is much higher . . . however, the scale just doesn't seem to want to budge. It's hard not to be frustrated but I know that the overall way that I feel and the changes I have seen mean more than that pesky scale number. I do realize that I haven't been strict enough with my diet . . . and I plan to get that under control starting today. Thanks for checking out my progress . . . your support means more than you can imagine!

I agree with the ladies you are looking fantastic! Keep up your good work!

You're so pretty! You look great. Way to go on your loss!

I see the changes...and you have a beautiful face!

Wow! I can't believe you've only lost 10 pounds, because your changes don't look subtle at all. You look like you've lost more like 25lbs. You are really gorgeous!

10 pounds WHAT?? Girl you look like you lost much more than that. Keep on doing what you are doing. Remember inches is what counts, and from your pictures you are definitely LOSING inches!!!

I agree - no doubt looks like more than 10lbs - your hard work has really paid off! You look fabulous darling

Dragonfly - hello fellow St. Louisan! Amen for the safe return of the boys - unbelievable!

Subtle changes? No way! Those are major changes! Way to go.

My goodness what a diffference 10lbs makes! You look great!

totally - you look wonderful! congratulations!

You look so amazing!!! The working out must be helping, because you have look so different. Good for you!!! It can be so hard to keep at it when the changes don't seem to be coming... but just hang in there, I bet anyday now the scale will suddenly plunge downward. Try doing measurements in the meantime, that way you'll see the progress in a different way.
