How much weight did you loose before people started noticing?

I'm almost 7 months out and 70 lbs down. People are starting to notice. Not that it matters to me. But it has been a positive experience. At what point did people notice your weight loss?

At 2 months

I'm almost 6 months out and almost 60 lbs down... I think ppl that don't see me often notice immediately. Those that see me daily/weekly started asking at about 30/40 lbs down?

Good question!

I'm only 5 weeks out. My husband said he sees (and feels ;)) the difference already. I've lost 35 lbs since beginning prep op diet and 15 since surgery.

50 lbs. Someone at work just recently stopped me and asked if I had lost weight. It was weird, especially since I don't really "see it yet." I think the bigger you are the more it takes to see a difference.

My husband and friends that know about my surgery say they see a change, but I think they are mainly just trying to be encouraging. I have only barely gone down one clothing size.
