Down 25! Still have ways to go...

[Sage_1988]

Trying to stay positive, even though I still want to lose another 55-60 pounds. Sometimes I feel like I haven't even made a dent, and only one person has commented on my weight loss... I know I'll be happy I started this journey a year from now, and maybe I should avoid taking progress photos at the office lol. It's awkward!

That 25 pounds looks great on you!

That's a very effective 25! Keep going! If people aren't mentioning it, they might just be trying not to be nosy.

Don't get discouraged. I've definitely wondered if people are losing weight but haven't said anything, especially if I don't know them well. Sometimes, I just notice their clothes are getting looser. I didn't have anyone comment when I lost about 40 pounds, so be patient! Side-by-side photos would definitely get you some compliments!

Wow, you look amazing. You've motivated me! I'm only on week two, but I can't wait for results like yours. Great job!

Congratulations

It's actually very noticeable, thanks guys!

This is wonderful, congratulations! I'm a bit envious, not of your success, but I'm just a big person. I started at 6'7", around 430 pounds, and I'm on round two of weight loss, now down to 295 with medication. I've lost about 40 pounds this time, but I still have another 30 to lose before I feel closer to my goal. It is great seeing smaller people celebrating 30-40lb loss! For me it's just baby steps because there's more of me in general lol.

I've lost 20 so far, and it's barely noticeable to me ;( (182 - 162)...but you're doing great!

 

[T2D_Survivor_Mark]

Incredible congratulations!

The holidays are coming up. The change is already there. Wearing a uniform minimizes the visual change. Congrats!

LOL I feel that! But seriously, you should be proud of how far you've come!

I hate body dysmorphia too, it is the worst. I'm down 70 pounds since last fall. Keep up the great work, you're doing fantastic!

This is wonderful, congratulations!

It's so inspiring to see everyone's progress. I’ve been struggling with taking pictures of myself, but I really need to start documenting the journey!

 

[Sage_1988]

Thanks everyone for the encouragement! It really helps! HormoneHustle I also think wearing a uniform makes it harder for people to notice, you're totally right!
