Our differing bodies!

[angeeb]

One thing I find strange about loosing weight is how different bodies show it......

One person can loose 3 stone and it makes a HUGE difference to how they look, while others who loose the same amount, you really have to look to see!

Doesn't seem to matter about starting weights either.....

I know what you mean. My sister in law is at slimming world at the minute and is almost a stone lighter than me (same height) and I'm a dress size smaller.
My sister is half a stone lighter than me and looks about 2 stones lighter.
Strange...

Agree with this completely. People have said that only after losing 3-4 stone has anyone noticed; people noticed quite quickly after I'd lost 2 stone. And my boyfriend says I look quite a bit slimmer now that I've lost 5.

Something I was watching or reading, can't remember now which, said that some of us have a lot of fat internally and that that's the first to go usually. So perhaps if its not obvious, that's why?

Its taken to nearly losing 6 stone before anyone really commented and I wondered if that was because some people thought that maybe I was seriously ill as it went off so quickly?

I suppose sometimes, people will be careful what they say so as not to upset you.

I agree
Its the same as dress sizes.
When I weighed 21 stone I was a size 24/26 but some else who was the same height and weight as me was a size 28/30
