Point taken, Ruth. I remember well what it was like to lose 24 lbs, and be so excited, and have no one notice

I have to think, though, that adopting a LC WOL, feeling better physically and having that sense of control (that was a big one for me) helps. You know you're doing something that is good for yourself. Doesn't that count toward seeing a change? Knowing that eventually you're going to be at that point where you won't need the tangible lies - that has to count too, right?
