Do I look like I've lost weight?

Ok, I've only really been at this for about seven or eight weeks. And people have told me I look like I've lost weight, but I just can't see it in the mirror. I know it's early to be posting any 'after' pictures, but I just wanted to get a little feedback...

These first couple of pictures are at 315ish;







and this weekend at 286ish;

It looks pretty obvious to me that you've lost some weight in the last picture. Keep it up. Its hard to notice it in yourself. Trust other people and pictures over the mirror. Its so gradual its hard to really tell until clothes start getting too big. You lost 10% of your weight. Thats a good place to be 2 months in.

It is hard to tell with so much clothing and light differences... but I can see a difference in your neck and jawline.

Definitely. You look rounder in the before photos than in the after and there's a big difference in the face. Awesome job! Keep it up and you're gonna look amazing.

Yeah, your chest doesn't look as puffed out and your face has definetly gotten smaller, as others said; it's harder to notice yourself. Once your clothes are sagging you'll really start to feel good. Although your wallet won't. haha

I can definitely tell you've lost weight. Your face and your upper body look smaller. You should try taking pics like every month wearing the same clothes that show your body. I used to think I didn't see a difference but when I take out those month pics and compare that's when i'm like "wow...I used to look like that?!!!?". Keep up the great work...it won't be easy but you can do it =)

Ok, well the feedback really helps. Thanks.

I think I can tell that my head is looking less and less like a large, cured ham. Which I think will be good in the long run.

Yes, I can see a difference in your face and neck. However, the best way to tell if you're losing weight is how your clothes fit. Losing 30 pounds, you should definitely have noticed a difference and or already dropped a size or two.

LOL yeah, those Oakleys seem to be the one constant, huh?

My clothes are definitely fitting differently. I've already taken some pants and shorts to Goodwill because they were too loose. I've probably lost two, maybe three inches from my waist.
