How many inches lost vs weight lost.

sezie

I'm just wondering how many inches people have lost in comparison to their weight loss? I was watching a program a few weeks ago(Supersize vs Superskinny UK show) and a lady had lost around 35lbs and lost 8 inches from her waist. Impressive in comparison to me!

I'm 66lbs down.

Starting waist 48 inches > waist now 39.5 inches
Starting hips 57 inches > hips now 48.5 inches

Obviously everyone is different, so how many inches have you lost compared to weight?

I've only lost about 12 pounds so far. However, I have lost 6 inches around my waist and about an inch off my hips. It's amazing how that works.

I don't know how many total inches I've lost, but after I did my first round of Focus T25, 10 weeks, I lost 10 inches, but only 1lb.

Hey I've lost around 10lbs total (5 recorded here) and 5 inches off my waist which went relatively quickly when i cut out all the junk food and went Vegan, i think it was partly bloating/ water retention who knows i guess everyone is different

I have only lost 11 pounds in 5 months, but I have lost over 20 inches all over. Almost 4 inches off each; waist, stomach (around belly button), and hips. I haven't been working out this winter so the inches are slowing down a bit.

I still have a long way to go. I figure by next fall I will be at my goal, but hopefully the spring/summer will bring a bit more change.

Well done all, it is amazing how different it is for people.

Should've said I started at 290lbs. I wish I noted my bust and arm measurements when I began, but it wasn't too bothered then!

Funny that we started at the same measurements mrsward2010 you've done really well! x

Onwards and downwards

Everyone is very different! Your body type, BMI, what you are eating and if you are strength training or not all have influence. I'm 5'9" and after a 20 lb weight loss am down 1 - 1.5 inches in each area (chest/waist/hips/thigh).

70pounds lost
20 inches in the waist 44 to 24
I didn't measure hips when I started

Rule of thumb is 1" off waist size for every 5 pounds of weight loss (give or take a pound or two). Everybody is a little different based on how they carry their weight.

whats the best way to lose inches? is it through weight lifting?

hellomanen

35 pounds dropped for good!
lost about 6 inches overall
half of it frm my waist alone
but you have to consider your body shape and type, complexion, etc!

ive lost about 4 inches off my waist, 2 inches off each thigh, two inches off my chest and 5 off of my stomach...BUT ive only lost about 6 pounds. Dont know whats going on but i dont really mind cause i look a lot better.

It's also different if you are building muscle, you will see inches lost but less weight loss.

It's a weird process but I lost 7 pounds in 3 month but over 22.5 inches off my entire body! It was amazing. This turn around is slower but I have 2 months before I weigh in again...so far 2 pounds and 5 inches. Couple weeks in:)

Hmmmm... I've lost about 30 inches in my waist, 12 inches in my chest... and I don't think I ever did measure my arms or legs, but I know they are smaller too.
