So total is 8!I still don't look or feel any different tho.
It won't really seem that much a difference early on. You can't focus weight loss to a zone, it just gets lost from everywhere, so if you think about 8lbs divided up by the entirity of your body, it won't be a dramatic change, but the key is to just focus on that it is changed. Whether you see it and feel it or not, you have lost that weight, just keep working at the losing it and eventually you'll notice it.
Along my journey, all the changes in me have been subtle and just one day I'll notice this or that's different. If you try and look for changes week to week, you'll get discouraged and dissappointed, just go about life like normal and eventually you'll just have these little pause moments, like wait a minute, something's different here. It's actually more exciting too when it surprises you versus looking for different things. When I spot changes in myself, I get fascinated like I discovered time travel or something, and over the littlest things. I keep staring at my hands because now I have knuckles showing and veins starting to pop out instead of these pudgy hands with no form to them. I remember in high school art class, my teacher got on my case one day because we had to do sketches of our hands and mine didn't look realistic because I didn't sketch tendons and all, and then I shamefully showed her, my fat hand doesn't show that stuff. So now to see it is exciting. People that have always seen that stuff would probably think I'm a weirdo, but where it's all new, it's amazing.
). I have lost about 50 pounds since then and started lifting back in September of last year so I haven't a clue. Probably need to schedule an appointment with my physician when I get back home to get all my ducks in a row.
