Down 17lbs

I didn't think I related to other people when they said they don't feel thinner or are caught up to their weight loss mentally. When I look in the mirror I keep expecting to see my belly sticking out or a lumpy side profile, but I'm flatter than I imagine I am (in a good way).

Especially in the evenings when I'm bloated from eating I really feel like I am not making progress.

I still have quite a way to go before I reach my Final/ Ultimate Goal Weight, but I'm 2lbs from my next Goal Weight (150lbs = BMI 25.0). I haven't been a healthy weight in 2+ years.

At the end of May I bought a new uniform in a bigger size because of the weight I gained, but now my old uniform fits. It's a strange feeling that I prepared for failing this weight loss attempt and it was finally successful. Previously, I would buy goal weight clothes, and NEVER have I stuck with it long enough to fit into them.

I'm curious if people will notice. I'm a little quiet and didn't really draw much attention to myself, so it's likely no one will really pay attention. It's only been 10lbs since the last time I was with them (gained the extra 7lbs during quarantine- where no one saw me), so it may not make a difference. I am not doing this for attention, but I want my efforts to be recognized just the same, or even just the newfound confidence.

If anything they may notice my watch tan line lol.

From others experience how much weight did you lose before people noticed? How did it feel?
