How much weight loss to drop a size



Recommended Posts

When you start to get to the lower sizes, how much does it take to lose a pants size? I am at 192 now and just fitting into a 14. It took me about 45 lbs to go from a tight 18 to a snug 14.

Ive heard that once you get out of the bigger sizes it doesnt take as much to go down a size. I was wondering if anyone can give any insight on how much they lost between sizes at this stage.

I'm down 39 lbs since surgery. Went from a 18/20 (3x) shirt and pants to now a very baggy 16. I could probably get into a 14 pants, but I haven’t' tried yet no money lol. But my tops are 14.

I was wondering the same thing. I am down 30lbs and was a size 22 now I am in an 18 comfortably. 10 more lbs and I should get into a 16 bottoms. I would say 10-20lbs for each size depending on your shape. Good luck and congrats to you!

I agree with the 10 to 20 pound range and how much you or what type of exercise you do greatly depends on how fast you drop sizes. I know the elliptical will help you drop a pants size in no time!
