I have ten more pounds to go for my goal of 135 im 5'8. 144 right now so my question is. will it make a difference. like dropping another pants size? i rememeber when i started it out it took 70 pounds before people even notice and then they said oh have you lost weight i'm thinking um yeah 70 pounds lol but it might be just my shape cuz i was massive you know what i mean sound horrible but i was massive and soild. anyway i was just wondering when you drop ten pounds do you notice it vs when your bigger and it take forever i hope my question makes sense lol

    it may be harder to lose ten more now that you're so slim. (Congratulations BTW that is extraordinary!!!!!)

    it will be noticeable to you, because you know your body so well, and it will likely result in a looser fit of the same size you're wearing now (unless your clothes are already loose now), but I doubt if ten lbs on such a slender body will be highly noticeable to others.

    On a smaller frame, 5 pounds will make a difference.
    I am 5'3'' and 117 and people notice a difference when I lose 3 or 4 pounds! But that may just be because I have a small frame as well.

    I'm going with Yes. Not only will you notice 10 pounds you'll lose at least 1 if not 2 pant sizes. I'm there right now I drop a pant size about every 10 pounds now which is cool BUT expensive since I'm still losing rather quickly. Congrats on such an amazing loss and good luck on that last 10. :drinker:

    YES! It does make a difference, I am 145 i was 156 @ my highest. People that see me everyday, can tell I lost 10 pounds, but it took my 2 months to lose just 10 pounds. Now you can see it in my collarbone, waist (a ,ittle) diffidently my ring finger. GL PRETTY GIRL! CONGRATS!

    I noticed that the more weight I lost, the faster the pant sizes dropped. But I also lost last on my hips, butt and thighs. You may not see a pant size difference just in weight loss, but if it is accompanied by toning and inch loss, then you will. Check out this blog for an amazing photo representation of changing clothes with no weight change. Inspired me to work on toning for my last 10 pounds rather than just the number on the scale. (BTW, I am 5'8" and 159.4 right now in a size 8)

    Lets just start with you did amazing and you an inspiration to all. You proved it can be done. THe last few lb will be a bear to get off but if your consistant and work hard you will see the results physically.

    Again I am a smaller frame 5'4 and I weight 140 lbs or so but if I cut 3-5 lbs I can see a difference and so can others that know me. So yes you should see a physical difference

    well that might be true for some but it took me forever to drop pants sizes i started out a size 26 then when i got to 260 it wasnt till i reached about 218 to get to 18! i was a 14 at 190 skipped a bunch of sizes and then got to a size 6 jeans it werid how i lost weight i don't lose inches like everyone else does i can loose pounds all day long but inches take forever to fall off and i always wonder way that is. nobody has never had the answer for me lol
