Weight loss ?

I've lost almost 30 pounds, it happened quickly due to a family situation.
I know I have lost weight, I've had to buy all new clothes. But I still feel like I look the same. I read it can take time for your mind to realize it...
Has this happened to anyone else?

Yes, this can definitely happen. I have lost 50 lbs, many years ago, and I know what I see is definitely not what other people see.

Take some pictures. Ive never lost that much but I never noticed if Ive lost (or gained for that matter!) until I see myself in pictures even if my clothes are loose.

Yes. This! Helps a lot to see in pictures. I bet if you compare you will see it.

Re: Weight loss ?

Yes, totally can relate.

I lost 60lbs about 2 years ago and am still surprised when I come across a pair of old pants in my closet that I are still too big on me. I went from a size 18/20 to a size 12/14 (and still got a ways to go - my BMI is still too high). The shock is really looking at pictures - I had to take down all my wedding pics because I look so much better now than I did then. I dont ever want to balloon up to that size ever again.

The best thing to do is to take pictures so you can see actual progress.

I agree - take pictures. I lost weight over the summer and everyone commented on it; but I don't really see it myself. I guess we are always harder on ourselves and not able to see the changes others see right away.
