    Lost just over 40lbs. Definitely lost one pant size (for sure) maaaaaybe two. Yay for tall-ish, bottom-heavy spoons!

    Same. Well I've lost 33lbs and no trouser sizes. Annoying I an understatement.

    I lost total of 77 pounds. I was in size 38 pants and now able to take off my size 30 bluejeans without unzipping and unbutton them. I am still losing weight, although at much slower rate. From 254LBs to 177LBs since August 16, 2011.

    I had lost 10 pounds before I could go from a size 8 to a size 6, so I think it takes around 10 pounds for me to go down a size.

    65lbs down 15 to a 4....I think it all really depends on the person. I would like to lose pant sizes without dropping much weight now.

    It takes me 20lbs each time to lose a jean size, I've lost 17lbs and went from a baggy 18 to a snug 16...Not really too happy to be honest.

    Lost 105lb's and went from a Mens 46 to Mens 38. It was 13lb's per 1 inch.

    Congratulation on the massive effort to lose all that weight.

    I'm a bit confused. I checked your profile and it says "you aren't in the same boat". So you are good at your current weight? You are good with a size 38 pants? At your current weight, and I'm 6'4", I would still be classified as overweight.

    It's not always about weight. His BF% could b low. My husband is 6'1 230 lbs, but he's 20% BF, so he doesn't look overweight at all. By BMI standards he is obese tho. He wears a 34 pants. He only has to lose 30lbs roughly to become 10% & ripped. He's got a ton of muscle.

    Lost 23 and my tight 20s are now loose but no change in pant size yet. I always lose my weight from the top down. I can see my cheekbones again and feel trimmer in the middle but my bottom and legs are always last to change. :cry:

    How long have you been losing the weight? What methods did you use? That is impressive!

    I gained 22 pounds, went from 133 to 155 lbs. But I went from a size 8 to a size 6! So you do not necessarily have to lose weight in order to lose sizes. How is it possible? Lifting heavy and eating plenty (2400-2600kcal that is)!!!

    Lost 38 pounds, gone down from 42 to 38 in suit/formal trousers and from 42 to 36 in jeans.

    My partner has lost 33 pounds and has gone from 36 to 32 in jeans and formal trousers.

    Great as it means I have a stack of clothes to inherit!

    :happy:

    Women hold most of their stubborn weight around the hips area. Its not surprising that most women need to shift some serious weight to drop pants sizes.

    As for myself being a guy I lost about 25lb and went from 36" to around 32" or 33" waist.
