Yes, all the time. Like you, I can see some difference; can feel some difference, but not enough yet for anyone else to notice a difference. So it makes me wonder if what I see/feel is real. Like the advice that was given, I'm going to start taking photos of myself (cringe) and using that.

I met a woman who had gastric bypass and lost CONSIDERABLE weight. She still wore HUGE clothes. When I mentioned she was going to have to get a new wardrobe, she said she still saw the same big person, and didn't know how to change.

And even though it's depressing at times, I'm not going to give up. I look at your weights and I see how far you all have come. What I wouldn't give to be where you are.
