redgirl37 43 Posted April 16, 2017 I've been getting lots of compliments on how I look now and how I'm doing a great job on my weight loss but I haven't noticed it. The other day I decided to take some side by side photos and it wasn't until then that I noticed it. Just wondering do anyone else feel the same way?!!! 8 Newme17, Jamocoa, Lenee Fair-Allen and 5 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blizair09 3,250 Posted April 16, 2017 I'm glad that you noticed! You know, I do believe that sometimes we are our own worst critic. Keep up the awesome work! 6 Jamocoa, rnymorales, ShelterDog64 and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SleevyNicks 20 Posted April 17, 2017 You look great! I can't tell I've lost 30 lbs but my husband says he can see it. 1 Jamocoa reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VooLivre2017 79 Posted April 17, 2017 You are doing great! I know what you mean though. Though my clothes were looser I didn't REALLY notice either. Now, I am stopping to examine everything so I can be more present in the journey and Celebrate my successes. 2 Jamocoa and redgirl37 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Many times, we are the last ones to notice. I think perhaps it's because we constantly adjust the way we think we look. 2 redgirl37 and Jamocoa reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Torriluv87 300 Posted April 19, 2017 Great job! You look great! I could kinda tell for myself there were changes but i couldn't see how big they were until my boyfriend made a side by side for me and sent it in a text and said "next time you feel discouraged or like there hasn't been any change, just look at this picture. You've come a long way." He always tells me how proud he is of me and how great i look. It's really helped my confidence. It's also reassuring because other people keep commenting on my weight-loss. It's weird because i still barely feel or see myself as much different either but we see ourselves every day. Just keep doing what you're doing and you'll see the results yourself soon too and it'll only motivate you. Keep up the great work hun! 2 Jamocoa and redgirl37 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Redmaxx 740 Posted April 19, 2017 You look great. I feel the same as you. I still feel bigger and when I see myself in a mirror I just stare because I don't recognize the person looking back at me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redgirl37 43 Posted April 19, 2017 You look great! I can't tell I've lost 30 lbs but my husband says he can see it. Thanks!!
