I have a twist - I didn't think I weighed that much - I looked in the mirror and saw me or I avoided looking in the mirror as much as possible. I thought buying new clothes in a larger size was the clothing companies changing the sizes - I know warped but it kept me sane!

Now yes I have to say that people can tell what I weigh - I have been doing this for so long now that everyone is aware and finally after 50 + lbs gone people are starting to really say wow you are doing great!

It is a good feeling and it takes me 25lbs to lose a size as well.

Good luck everyone!!! - I think it is how you feel inside as well and right now I don't feel over 200lbs I am but in certain clothes I feel much thinner!
