I started at 260 pounds on November 6, 2006. I've pretty much just been watching what I eat and cutting out soda. I started by calorie counting and writing down everything. I soon got bored with that, after about a month and just decided that I knew what good and bad choices were.

Anyways, I've lost 28 pounds in only TWO months. Sure, I'm proud of myself and it's a great start. I can't really tell, though...other than my clothes are too big all the time. I feel better, I suppose... but I can't really tell in my face, etc. I didn't really take any before pictures, I wish I would've. My family has told me they can see it, though.

When did you start feeling like you were really losing...after how many pounds?
 
you see yourself every day and the changes are so small and subtle that you adapt to them. I think other people telling you is the best way to know. Plus it gives that fuzzy warm feeling inside

I'm just starting to feel like I'm really doing it. It's been 3 months for me, and I've lost only 25lbs so far. But its coming off, and I'm feeling great about it.
 
Wow 28 pounds in 2 months, thats awesome!!!!

I myself notice that it takes longer for the face and under the chin and neck area to show any results. But like Grandiose said, because things change gradually you might think your not seeing changes, but they are happening...

Just keep up the great work, and give your self a little wink every time you pass by that mirror!

That super, 25 pounds, good job!!!

Like you said, I'm feeling great about it. That's what it all about, being healthy and loving it....

Thanks for all the support. I asked my boyfriend the other night if he could feel/see the changes, and he said most definitely. We've been together 5 years almost, so I suppose it's really nice that he sees change. He told me there wasn't as much there on my sides and my thighs were slimmer, haha. Goodluck to everyone!
