Adding an image for comparison. You'll be able to notice a huge difference with pics like this.

I totally get your feelings! I have a large body frame as well and I wasn't really seeing a difference in anything other than pant size and my face, neck, shoulders. It wasn't until my husband pointed out side by side pictures to me that I can really notice a difference. I still have a LONG way to go, but I'm so happy with how far I've come. Just remember that this is a marathon, not a sprint, and you will make it to the finish line.

Welcome Crystal, I'm new as well, just found the forums. We are on similar journeys. I had my surgery on 11/26/19. I didn't really have much pain, but I had a horrible open gallbladder removal surgery done in June of '19 so any pain I did have would have paled in comparison. So sorry you had so much pain. Hope you are doing well on your journey. I've lost about 66lbs to date, but I've hit a horrible stall for the last few weeks. So very frustrating, but apparently very normal. So glad I found these forums so that I don't feel like a complete and utter failure.
