  • Wow...you do look great Waterdog! There's no way you're 254 in that last picture.
  • I can definitely tell the difference between your start and current pictures. Yup- most definitely. This is why I take progress pictures monthly.

    Won't it be fun when you are close to your goal picture there? When was that from?
  • OMG! I would never think you're 254 from that last picture!! You carry your weight well, and that weightloss totally shows!!
  • Quote: You're doing great!! Def keep at it!

    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!

    Found it! http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Gv8ryGTUYx...-12-weeks2.jpg

    I know this is going by time (versus weight) but since you're 3.5 weeks in I'm sure you'll notice come 12 weeks!
    I was going to say the same thing. It's funny, today is the end of my 12th week, and so many people are noticing. Hang in there.
  • 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!!

    Thanks again for the advice! Good luck!
  • After a few weeks
  • 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

    Congrats on your weight loss so far!
  • Belly on me has gone down 8 inches in 3 weeks at 25 lb loss.
