I have lost nearly a stone and yet see no difference in my clothes nor in photo
Do not click if you are offended by big ladies
Feeling disheartened.

Yes I can see a big difference!
Stomach is smaller, less underarm boob and on the whole you look much tighter and firmer
Well done, a stone is a huge amount, give yourself a break you should be really proud of yourself Flowers

DonaldDucksTowel · 06/11/2018 16:10

On a second look, less back fat and a perkier bum too!
You’re doing great

Tentomidnight · 06/11/2018 16:10

Well done!
I can see a noticeable difference on your back and underarm areas.
Are you measuring yourself? Waist, upper arms, chest etc? That is probably the best way to see tangible results.

Veterinari · 06/11/2018 16:12

Definitely! Your underarm is much slimmer and the roll/crease you have from your back across your belly in the first photo is gone. Your stomach is definitely smaller. Keep at it!

HarveySchlumpfenburger · 06/11/2018 16:13

I can see a difference. Definitely around the back and under arm.

KeepServingTheDrinks · 06/11/2018 16:14

I can see a difference too. Under arm/boobs/bum all look perkier and smaller.

I think you're doing really well. Good for you Flowers

ScreamingValenta · 06/11/2018 16:14

Your stomach is much smaller and your bra looks looser. Well done!

youare · 06/11/2018 16:14

Definitely a difference. Bloody well done, keep going 💪🏻

MaruMaru · 06/11/2018 16:14

tbh I can't see much difference-
but whether it's visible from that angle or not, the fact is you HAVE lost a stone so you are one stone healthier. Keep going- it's a fantastic achievement.
I lost 2 stone over the summer. I bought new jeans- but in the same size!!! I was disappointed but people did notice I had lost weight and I could see a difference in my overall size and shape.

RaspberryRippleCrisps · 06/11/2018 16:15

Definitely! I can see a distinct difference in the size of your stomach. Well done btw.

OrangeOrBlackcurrant · 06/11/2018 16:15

I can see a difference. I currently look like your first picture so you have inspired me.
Any tips? Please! Flowers

TheCrowFromBelow · 06/11/2018 16:15

^^ what they said! Definitely see a difference.
Well done. Start measuring with a tape measure - just once a week!

sizzledrizz · 06/11/2018 16:17

I can see a big difference. You've lost a lot of weight and have toned up. Keep it up, you're doing very well x

fuckitbuckit · 06/11/2018 16:17

Are you serious OP in the first pic your knickers have a gap and in the second pic they are snug to your skin!! That is a lot of extra skin gone!!
Arms look slimmer and your whole stomach has lost quite a few inches.
Measure yourself instead of weighing. And if the weight is coming off steadily you won't feel much of a difference so don't be pushed back by that. You're doing really well :)

helpmum2003 · 06/11/2018 16:18

I can see a difference - there was a roll of fat from under bra strap towards front which has gone. Well done!

Loubilou09 · 06/11/2018 16:27

I can see a big difference - WELL DONE!!! You are doing great and in another six weeks there will be even more of a difference. You are an inspiration as I would love to lose a stone in the next 6 weeks but can't seem to get going....

Judashascomeintosomemoney · 06/11/2018 16:29

Definitely a noticeable difference! Keep going!

DDogMum · 06/11/2018 16:47

Yep, definitely noticeable weight loss there! Well done xx

StrumpersPlunkett · 06/11/2018 16:50

Thank you lovelies.
I am swimming about 1.5 miles a week and doing 5:2 diet.
I guess it is hard to not get sucked I to the idea that an extra 4 stone and 4 dress sizes will drop off overnight

Looking at them again I hadn’t really noticed the rol of back fat so didn’t notice it had gone. 😂😂

Don't forget portrait shots - you will notice it in your face and neck quite easily

AnotherOriginalUsername · 06/11/2018 16:52

(I don't mean post them on here, I mean for your own benefit!)

ScreamingValenta · 06/11/2018 16:54

Do you have an item of clothing that's a little bit too small for you - e.g. a skirt or dress you can't quite fasten? Trying it on once a week and seeing it get nearer and nearer until it fastens, then becomes comfortable, then becomes loose is very motivating - particularly if you have a 'slow' week on the scales.

Cinnabunbun · 06/11/2018 16:56

A stone over 6 weeks is great!

FloralCup · 06/11/2018 17:01

Looks like you've had to alter your bra strap so something's changing! Well done.

Wotrewelookinat · 06/11/2018 17:01

Definitely a difference, loss of back fat was the first thing I noticed! You’re doing really well (much better than me!).
