    I'm 5'4" and at 180 I was about a 14 pant size and a 16 dress size due to boobs.

    something has to be wrong with that theory,I am 4 foot 10 inches, 37 years old. in October 14, 2013 i weighed 196 lbs and was a tight size 22, as of march 21,2014 i weigh 184 lbs and i am now in a loose size 14, That is in 5 months. I have not changed my eating habits, I have only been cleaning 7 large horse pens about 4 times a week (which includes lifting up to 100 lb barrels up over my head to empty into the dumpster)..... I have also just recently (within the last week) started walking about 1 mile a day. So, going by 20 lbs per size, i should have lost 80 lbs.....and i have not....

    Hopefully OP got happily hitched a long time ago. This post is from 2012.


    Anyway it depends on the person (and fat distribution) and on whether you're losing mostly fat, mostly muscle, or a combination of both.

    20 lbs between sizes until sz 14, then 10 lbs between size 12 and smaller.

    Woah, it takes me much more than that. I lost 20 pounds and only went from a 12 to a 10. Maybe it's because I'm tall?

    I'm tall as well and I think it's the same thing. I was my smallest at a size 16, 250lbs, after I got pregnant and gave birth I gained about 50lbs but was a size 22.
