When does weight loss become noticeable?

I've been trying to lose weight for a few months now, eating healthy and exercising regularly. I feel better, but I'm not sure if others can see a difference yet. When does weight loss usually become noticeable to other people?

For me, it's usually when my clothes start feeling loose, especially around the waist. That's when I know something is happening. Does anyone else notice it like that, or is it just me?

Bro, if you're consistently eating right and hitting the gym, you'll start seeing changes in a few weeks. It's not just about the scale, but how your body feels and looks. For me, strength gains and better endurance are also signs.

I've been reading up on this because I'm trying to lose some weight. It seems like for most people, around 5-10% of body weight loss makes a visible difference. It's interesting how different people notice it at different points.

You'll notice it when your clothes fit better, or people start commenting. Usually after 2-3 kgs, you can feel it, even if others don't see it immediately. Consistency is key.

Honestly, for me, when my BP numbers started to improve, that's when I felt the positive change, even before it was super visible. Weight loss from lifestyle changes really makes a difference. Regular checkups are a must to track your progress correctly.

My doctor told me that typically, a noticeable difference in clothing size or appearance happens after losing about 10-15 pounds, depending on your starting weight. But internal health benefits, like improved blood sugar or cholesterol, often begin much sooner than visible changes. It's not just about what you see.

I just went through this journey. For me, it was around the 4-5 kg mark that I started seeing my face look a bit leaner and my old jeans felt comfy again. The first changes are usually subtle, but they add up!
