Well I think that all of your co-workers are butt-heads because I can tell that there is a difference between the two pictures. Maybe they are jealous, or maybe they are so into themselves that they don't notice anyone else. Is it wrong that I am imagining your boss being like Steve Carell's character in the TV show "The Office"???
You look great! The only other thing I can think of is that they might not notice if you are wearing loose fitting clothes to work, they can't see you body and therefore cannot see the change.

Hi Briarcliffeangel,
First off....I wanted to say that you look amazing and beautiful in your pic...I'm jealous!!! Anyways....I tend to agree with a few others...I'm wondering if your co-workers,etc are just jealous? I've lost 70 pounds so far and I've gotten a ton of compliments from most people....(actually..I'm feeling the opposite of you...I'm almost sick of all the comments..I'm such a modest person...it almost embarrasses me...and then I get to thinking....god..how bad did I look before...? lol). Anyways...there are a few people at work that haven't said one thing to me....and those people tend to be the types that just don't say anything because it would take away from "them"..if that makes any sense. Gosh..I'm not really making any sense here..lol..must be my New Years hangover. Anyways.....I think you look beautiful and you have accomplished something very wonderful......you should be very proud of yourself....I am proud of you!!!!!!! Take care hon...
luv,
Olivia

You look great but something I noticed from your pic...At one point I had dropped 30 pounds granted I am very tall but I changed my style. I noticed that you were wearing much more revealing clothing in the first photo and a big sweater in the second. Now I know it is winter but have you thought of wearing a more figure hugging outfits because if I had lost all of that weight I would be all over wearing new clothes that showed it off. Are you still dressing like you did before you started practicing a daily intelligent eating technique! DIET

[QUOTE=Allie Abbott]It took losing 25 pounds for people to start saying to me...hmmm...have you been losing weight? People who see me almost every day don't say a thing, probably because they see me every day and get used to it. People who haven't seen me for a year are more likely to say "WOW! What happened to you?"

I can totally agree, People whom I dont see too often always comment on my weight loss but people Im around eveyday dont until I wear something that maybe accentuates my weight loss and then their like WAIT A MINUTE LOL People but I dont do it for them, I do it for me.

Hi

Thank you all for the replys. My friends must just be weird. I have one that hasnt seen me in person in forever and he says he cant see a difference because he doesnt see me everyday....like what. Then at work they see me everyday and they dont see it, thats what was driving me crazy.

The one lady noticed it after the break I actually gained back 2 ibs but I was wearing a size 4 rather then the 6. Never thought they would fit but they did

I plan to go back to wearing the kind of stuff in the pic with the blue shirt as soon as summer rolls around again...way too cold right now.

Thanks all!!!
