    I'm 5"8 started (not on MFP) at 229 lbs & now at 194 lbs and only dropped one dress size, however I am in a smaller (UK) size 18 pair of jeans so think I am toning through exercise too :-)

    5'3". Started at 196, probably a tight 14. Dropped to size 12 around 165 (so, 30 pounds). Currently at 152 and not quite fitting into 10s yet.

    I'm 5'10 and lost two pants sizes from 18-14 with a loss of 35lbs...

    I have been lifting heavy over the last couple of months and lost 6 lbs and dropped another two pants sizes to a size 10....

    go figure.

    I'm 5'7" and I noticed a change about every 20 lbs. I always have lost more inches than weight, but that is me personal.

    I started MFP last January and was a size 16/18, by April of last year, I was a size 10/12.

    I've dropped 27lbs and still wearing the same clothes ... they are looser but not big enough to go down a size. Some of my clothes were really tight when I started so that can be why they still fit! :)

    I lost 19 pounds and able to fit into my old jeans that were a size 8. I was starting to get into a 9 before I lost the weight. But I still can't buy new jeans because some jeans I am still in between sizes. :/

    I'm a member of the 5'7" too! I have lost 38 pounds as of today and because my clothes were soooo tight when I started, I have yet to go down a size. But hopefully one day!

    71 lbs size 16 to 4. So yeah 6 sizes one size every 11 lbish for me. Maybe you just lose more in one spot first. I remember going 16 to 12 fast then 12 to 8 was soooo slow and 8 to 4 fast again. I don't think it was like clockwork every 11 lbs. Maybe 10 10 18 18 8 7

    I'm 5'6. I started at a "tight" 18 (many buttons popping off and zippers breaking) and after 43 lbs am at a somewhat loose 16..in pants. Went from a 1x to an xl in tops. I am frustrated by the slow go with clothing size-down, but people are noticing!!:)

    I'm pear shaped and I have to loose 20 lbs to go down a size also. I'm 5' 7 1/2". I don't know if height has anything to do with it or not :happy:
