October 14, 201213 yr Girllllllll... you look great!!! Keep it up! I am only down 51 pounds and I'm feeling discouraged too! Congrats!!
October 14, 201213 yr You can definitely see a difference, just remember our eyes and brain lose wieght a lot slower than our bodies, we are so used to seeing big, our perception is totally screwed till we have as long being smaller as we were big !
October 14, 201213 yr I can definately tell a difference! Not just in the actual photograph.... but you look like you have much more self-confidence ! It seems to come through in the photos ! Congratulations!
October 14, 201213 yr Yes I can see a big difference. You look a lot smaller. This is great, keep up the good work. I have lost 58 lbs and cant really see much difference either, but had to buy one size smaller clothes. Yay for us!!!!
October 14, 201213 yr If you had posted these pics without a caption, I would have thought these were pics of two different people! You have done so well! Congratulations!!!

You can't see the difference? You look amazing! Keep up the good work. You can tell just in your smile and body language that there is something different, not to mention you're smaller. Way to go!
October 14, 201213 yr What you are describing with having difficulty with recognizing the difference between your before picture and current picture is not uncommon...it does take our mind some additional time to catch up with body to revise the body self image. Another example that I can laugh at now was the automatic thoughts regarding my weight as I fell into "onederland"...for months after I got below 200 pounds, I would still automatically think of my weight beginning with a 2 instead of a one. You will eventually have your mind and body in the same place...however you are still going through adjustments. Congrats on your progress!

B4 Sent from my iPad using LapBandTalk have you started wearing smaller clothes? if so, then you know you are losing i look in the mirror and cant tell myself. so i understand your post. you are doing great. keep up the great work.
October 14, 201213 yr Boy what a difference! You look great. Your mind will catch up in time..... The biggest reinforcement for me isn't the scale, it's the clothing sizes. I started at 20W and now I a wearing 12's.This morning I realized that I wear the same size as my 13 year old daughter, boy is she going to be pissed when I tell her I can wear her clothes.....lol
October 14, 201213 yr Absolutely see a difference! You must FEEL lighter as well. I've lost 20 lbs and I don't really see a difference at all but I feel lighter and don't have this big stomach in the way anymore. Plus I have no more lower back pain when I walk!
