Fat Illusion?

I'm not doing WiW this week but still want to post about weight.

When I started exercising 3-5 times weekly back in September 2000, I weighed 130 pounds. That was my highest weight ever. I didn't lose a single ounce until November 2002. Now my weight fluctuates between 120-125 depending on time of day/what I've eaten, but it's officially on the lower end of that range, because I consistently weigh myself before breakfast.

For the past few months or so, about 10 people, including fitness instructors and other knowledgeable professionals, have commented that I look a lot thinner.

This is me, spring 2000. This is me today. This is me in 1996, weighing 95 pounds. (for comparison purposes) Do you see a difference? I sure don't.

FYI - I haven't changed vertically...always been 5'2".

I see no difference, you look the same! You are tiny!

You look way to skinny in 1996. You look great now!

'96 you have a stick neck...that picture does make ya look sickly, as you put it. these days, i think you look smashing chica. you do look thinner and healthier.
