It took 25lbs for others to see a difference and myself, although even at 25lbs I don't notice much (haven't gone down a size and nothing fits super loose) but when I wear things that were tighter before I can feel it and then see it.
I know it's frustrating though bc really 18lbs is a lot of weight but before you know it's going to show! I've been taking measurements and pictures every 15lbs so I can see a difference! (I wanted to do 20lb but that was taking forever!)
I remember reading this quote somewhere Im going to see if I can find it and link it on here!
Thanks for the compliments! I am starting to feel better!
The first photo was taken about a month ago only 2 days into the program. (272.2)
The second photo was taken yesterday (in a cute new dress from Value Village!) (254.1)
The third photo was from 6 years ago when I was in Brazil. (130ish)
Looking at old photos are great for learning what you can and WILL look like again!!
I noticed it after the first month, even though my scales hadn't moved. However, I pay attention to detail. It was on my face that I first noticed the changes and then on my back
