What is your Jeans size (before/after)

mjwarbeck

Had to buy new jeans again at the end of last week. This time size 32 slim fit (Buffalo, Guess) with a current weight of 202ish. Was a relaxed fit 40 with a weight of 250ish in November.

I Love this thread! I think it's very beneficial for everybody to realize no matter what their weight, their sizes are going to be different from somebody else. Here's my stats:

SW: around 205 wearing a size 14
CW: 171 and a size 10, but need an 8
GW: 135. I'm guessing this will be a size 2/4

Wow your transformation is really awesome. Is it weight lifting results?!

Thank you! No, it's all been calorie counting and walking...but I do need a good weight lifting program. I'm flexing my bum here...Id like it to look like that naturally.

I'm 5'8" , at my heaviest 2 years ago at 211 lbs, size 16

SW: 195 lbs, size 14
CW: 143 lbs, size 8 but are baggy so will probably need a size 6 soon

Already passed my original goal weight of 150 lbs and am continuing until I'm rid of the dreaded belly fat so I may get down to a size 4, or maybe even a 2.

Your waist is so tinny for that number on the scale and I guess that is the magic of Strength training,Way to go girl

Lol. Thank you!
No magic here. Consistency + Patience=Success
A good lifting program, about 2,3 times a week, eating an average of 1900-2000 calories a day, decent protein, enjoying the heck out of life and these days doing pull-ups

Iam very confused about choosing good lifting program. Do you have any suggestions?!

Hope I can help out
You're only a beginner once: it's the most magical time ever and progress is insane especially if you are overweight. Because this time is so special it's wonderful if you can pick a true beginner programs that exploits the fact that your body is primed for amazing things.
There are only 2 requirements for a good program:
1. Progressive overload built into the program - you lift 2.5 or 5 pounds more each workout.
2. Includes the major compound lifts ( squat, deadlift, bench press, some type of overhead press)

There are other choices you will have to make depending on your training preference:
Strength based programs like Stronglifts 5x5, Wendler 5/3/1, Starting Strenght ( usually 2,3 workouts a week)
Bodybuilding based programs like Jim Stoppani's - Shortcut to Shred or other free beginner programs from bodybuilding.com ( usually 5,6 workouts a week)
Mixed programs with strength and bodybuilding components like "Strong Curves"
Some programs will be free and others will require the purchase of a book (might find them free at a library)

They will all work!!! Pick one and forget about anything else. Learn the exercises and do the program as outlined.
Eat to fuel your body and sleep so you can recover!
Enjoy a feeling like nothing else in this world and watch your body change before your eyes!!
Best of luck!

I'm 5'5" and at 162 lbs I wore a size 12, and now at 125-130 lbs, I'm in a size 6. I have wide hip bones and have never been smaller than a 4, even when I was under 110 lbs. The 6's fit big in the waist, but fit fine on the hips. I'm definitely pear shaped!

Idk why but I have lost 55 lbs and my waist size has only gone down from 36 to 34. It was still enough to make my jeans fall down
