They noticed - yay!

Got my first mention about my weightloss outside my family today. A woman that works on the same floor as me said that she and her friend noticed I lost weight and my walking schedule (once in morning before work and again at lunch). Yay!

I've lost 23 pounds since July 1st but I didn't think it was very noticable. I can tell but I didn't think anyone else could. Yay!

I have found that some people will congratulate you on your weight loss and others won't until someone else says something. I find it very strange that even close friends and family don't always make a big deal over your weight loss. The other day as I was leaving a  barber shop, I commented that one of the barabers looked terrific and how much did she lose. Once everyone else heard my question it was like the flood gates opened, and everyone was congratulating her.  Keep up the great job you're doing.

 

Thats amazing! GO YOU! thats alot of weight too! I had my first out-of-family notice that I lost weight on friday too! its sooo great! I actually brought it up to my sil and bil that I lost almost 50lbs they were like we didnt notice... uhhh! anyway...

Keep up the good work!

Congrats, you're awesome!!!  Way to go, keep up the good work!!!

Congrats! What have you done besides walking twice a day to lose so much weight? How far do you walk?

I know the feeling!! I am planning to thank those co-workers who first notice and mention my weight loss!! Does it feel great for somebody else to notice and mention. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK- IT IS REALLY STARTING TO PAY OFF!! 

Congrats!  I too had a similar experience.  A friend I hadn't seen in 8 months came into town and he just couldn't get over how much I had lost.  Such a wonderful feeling and a great motivator.

Hold onto that!  And keep up the amazing work! <3

sometimes maybe those who are near to us they see us everyday so its not so noticeable

i am also like you have lost about 20lbs but currently have reach plateu so am trying to break it and still need to lose another 20 lbs to healthy weight, another 10lbs to my beautiful weight
