I know this is going to be different for everyone, but how much did you need to lose before you noticed a diffrence? Just keen to know when I'll start to see a change in my shape really xx
About the same as others here. I started CD last August at about 14:2 and people commented at about 11:7
It doesn't take long to lose the weight on this diet, so the noticeable differences arrive soon!
I've actually already started noticing the difference, but that's probably because my pants are fitting a bit looser now and my BF is giving me all sorts of complimentary comments. But I image it'll hit me like everyone else around 2-3 stone.
for me its only just now i would say, i started at 15,4 and im now (today) 11,2. so over 4 stone, but i did loose it on and off so maybe didnt notice as much. I hate all the lumps and bumps so wont be happy until they have gone! lol! x
I have started at 13.12 and only after losing stone and a half ppl started commenting. Of course I had few remarks just when I started - which was nice and kept me going but not untli now have I had a confidence to start showing off LOL
I am slowly changing my wardrobe and love the idea that I can in fact wear dresses and some old pair of jeans (which I couldn't fit into for far too long)
when I did it before I did it for 2 weeks without my mother in law noticing even though I saw her regularly (really thought someone would notice that quickly!!)..... I would say about 1.5 to 2 stone cos i went from a size 18 to a big 14 so I started wearing better fitting clothes...... can't wait to fit back into my size 14's!! :sigh:
People started noticing after i lost about 1.5 stone but i never really noticed until about another half stone although felt much less bloated (started at 14.12 and finished short of target at 11.8). Back now to lose a few christmas squatters and to get to 11st this time.
It is a great feeling and it takes a while for your brain to catch up with what your eyes are seeing. LOL!
well im still looking at a bigger fatter me (when i do look in a mirror that is) but i know ive lost weight because i have nothing that fits me now i was a size 28 now 18/20 depends on what it is. ive been getting a few bits from charity shops, or adding elastic to thinga i already have...but i know soon i will need to go shopping,
im weighing in on monday and need 1/2lb for 4stones 7lb lose so far
good l;uck on your journey
I don't think it was till 30 lbs were off that people felt comfortable enough to comment about it. Then there was a period of continous remarks and then a period of looooooong silence till now when they're on and on daily asking when I'll stop.
As for when YOU will notice that's a different thing for everyone. Some days you won't believe you lost what you did, others you will feel nothing changed and that's when you'll need this forum and the ticker and the new clothes to remind you.
MissAma - what an amazing amount of weight to lose. Your will power must be steadfast. I'm sorry to read about your complications and I hope you are well AND slim now
