40 pounds gone?

[kat1974]

But I don't see where because I don't look any different. I am about ready to give up!

What do you guys think? No one around says they see a difference, except for the scales!

Re: 40 pounds gone?

Yep definitely visible weight loss, great work. Kudo's to you.

Re: 40 pounds gone?

I see a difference.
Your face is thinner, your hip and tummy area has reduced as well. And look at the way you're standing, it's different.
People that see us on a daily basis aren't good judges just because they do see you everyday. Another thing you need to take into account is how you feel internally. Do you feel better? Can you breath, move, walk, run better?

My fiance went away on business for a week and when he came back he said I looked different, but prior to that I kept asking if he saw a diff and he said he didn't know because he sees me every single day.

You're doing great
Goodness, 15miles on the elliptical! That is some serious exercise!

Re: 40 pounds gone?

Wow 40 #!!! You should be so proud of yourself!! Big Hugs to you.

I see a difference from head to toe. Keep up the good work. Did you take your measurements when you first started? Take them now & keep track!
Congrats on your loss thus far...you are doing fantastic!

I see a big difference in your appearance. When I do loose 40lbs I'll be doing the Beyonce Dance!! Don't give up.

Re: 40 pounds gone?

Thanks guys - your words really helped me out. I have just been in a slump here recently so I get down and don't know how to get back up sometimes, lol.

I haven't done my measurements in a while, but clothes that fit me 3 years ago (before baby), now suddenly fit, so I must be doing something close to right.

Re: 40 pounds gone?

OMG, I DO notice a difference. Your cheeks are smaller, your eyes look bigger, your neck is smaller, your waist is slimming!!! My goodness don't give up, you are doing it. 40 pounds is great. Keep going, you are doing great!

Re: 40 pounds gone?

I can see a difference as well. Your face and neck are much slimmer! I can see it in your waist too. Don't give up!

Re: 40 pounds gone?

I can see a big difference. You just have to glance at your face, quite apart from anything else! Keep at it... you're doing great!

I found that no one noticed my loss until I was nearly at goal, then suddenly everyone noticed it!

Re: 40 pounds gone?

You are definitely smaller all over!!! 40 pounds is Wonderful! Congratulations!!

Re: 40 pounds gone?

I agree with everyone else... and see a big difference... for one thing in before picture you're wearing black... which is slenderizing all by itself... and secondly your second pic you're wearing light colored clothes... even still it's obvious you're losing! Yah! good job! keep it up!
