When people start to notice :)

I'm down almost 80 pounds if my stupid ticker would ever update.  People have obviously started to notice.  It's so funny because it's almost taboo to mention weight loss, so I keep getting a kind of stuttered "you, um, wow, you, really have lost some weight, haven't you?"  Yes, I've basically lost a 10 year old, you can comment.  Go ahead.  I, not so secretly, love it :)

lol I love this!

Everyone I know was raised to never speak of weight because it's offensive. Well dammit, my weight WAS offensive. I'm out from under it, I'm OVER it! hahaha

People started saying something to me around 60lbs or so. Now I get it quite often from people who don't see me on a regular basis.

I have found that some folks noticed earlier than others.  However, in general, even after having lost more than 120 lbs. (150 or more from my highest recorded weight several years ago), women are much more apt to say something than men.  I don't know if men are more afraid of offending, they don't care, had written me off anyway in the looks department and just plain old haven't noticed, or what.  It doesn't really bother me, but it has just been my experience.
