Hi all!  Just a random but curious question for you all.Hi all! Just a random but curious question for you all. Actually 2. ♥️ How far into your journey did you get your first comment from someone that they noticed a weight change in you? How much loss did you have at that point? How far into your journey did YOU notice a change? Yes I know everyone loses at different rates. :) Still curious! I started @goldcrest7891uary with and ww has been life-changing. I am so in love with the program.

Usually 20-30 pounds is when others will start to notice. I noticed a change in the way I felt after about 10-15.

I have s mixed reaction. if people notice when I lose, them are they eye balling me when I gain?  When people have said, hey skinny, even when I was fat from it, it gave me an internal green light to eat.  My bad. I hesitate to mention weight loss as I never would weight gain. because they could be sick.

I had comments after my second week! But I’m no longer bloated so I think that really adds to it and it was the people the closest to me who see me everyday

I think people notice faster if you are smaller. The larger people usually use blouses that are loose fitting and cover you up more, so you can't tell until they get blouses that tuck in or more form fitting.

I had lost 10 pounds when I went for a wellness check and my doctor was astatic. Now 14 months later, I’ve lost 71 pounds and reached goal weight. The most important thing was having a made-up mind that I could do this. That was half the battle. My journey has been a change in life style and I couldn’t be happier or feel any better. WW works

I am only about 20 lbs down and nobody has really noticed but in the past the 40-50 lbs mark is typically where people start saying something to me. Long way to go.

I had a LOT to lose. (150). No one really noticed until I lost almost 40 pounds. I never really saw it on myself until I was down about 100 pounds. (I’m a coach now! )

The only ones that knew I was going to WW was my husband and sister-in-law and they were very encouraging. I had a lot of weight to lose so I didn't start to notice until after losing around 20+ pounds and that was the way my clothes felt. Nobody ever mentioned my weight loss except my WW peeps they are awesome! After losing 97 pounds I posted a before and after picture on FB and then family, friends all started commenting on my lost. I made lifetime in October -196 pounds down!

Some friends said something to me at about 40-50#, said they had noticed, and the change was dramatic! How ever after loosing 85# my husband had never said a word. His friends shamed him!  I noticed at about 25# because my pants were falling off, and I needed smaller underwear. ‍♀️ I had a lot to loose, so it may be much different for others who need to loose less.

Now around 30 lbs people have noticed, but there are still people that I know will never mention or congratulate me. Good thing I'm doing this for myself.
