    I am down 11 lbs. Many of my pants had gotten way too tight and those fit again (nicely too, not tight). The pants that did fit are now way too big. Still all the same size though, so there is a lot of variation from one style and brand to another. Also had to go buy a couple of new bras. Same size as before but a different cut that fits better.

    I've weighed between 120 and 150 since being 5'6" and I still wear the same size pants. I've always worn about a 6, but I think it really depends on the person and where they cary their weight. When I gain weight, most of it is in my gut. I've got pretty wide hips though so the pants don't change much. The gut hanging over them does though :)

    It's the inches you lose that makes your cloths size change not the lbs. So keep that in mind.

    I'm 17lbs down and STILL in the same size also. My doctor said it may be another 10lbs before I change sizes. I'm looking forward to putting on my "fat" jeans and saying YES too big! Great job on your weight loss!

    I can't remember how much it took the first time to loose a size.. but I have lost about 77 lbs (give or take.. been having a hard month) and I went from a size 24 W to a 16 W or 18 according to how it's made (don't you hate that? I have a pair of 18 W that firt great.. but also a regular 18 that fit... grrrr). So that's what about 5 sizes?

    I didn't keep checking my size when I was loosing weight.. I only bought clothes a few times.. I have big hips so I don't even need a belt most of the time when their to big (not something I want to brag about haha), but I actually tried some on yesterday for our vacation next month and was happily surprised.

    Its really going to depend on how and where your body gets rid of fat first.
    good luck though and dont get discouraged,,,,thats why I started to measure myself, so I would have something that would change in case the scale didnt haha

    I'm 5'11 and have dropped 30lbs this year. I was wearing a size 20 generally now an 18 is too big in bottoms but most 16's on the tight side. I have lost weight from my legs & bottom half but not loads from my waist etc ( bloody kids!) Boobs are suddendly going and desperatley need new bras in cup size more so than across my back. Inches lost all over are 25 to date.

    I've lost 10lbs so far and while most of my clothes fit a lot better, I'm not quite into the next size down yet. I'm hoping soon though!

    I lost about 15lbs and went down 2 pant sizes. My dress size is the same though, because my boobs haven't changed (which, for now, is a good thing)

    I'm a junk-in-the-trunk-er. I'm still in the same size. It's 20-25 pounds per pants size for me :(

    I think this is true! I've lost 35 pounds and I have only dropped one dress size. But I think the smaller you are/get the chance of going a size down is quicker.

    I'm down 11 pounds and I'm still in the size 8. Though now they're loose and before I think they were a little too tight.

    I am right here with you! loose on my legs, but man, I want my jeans to be baggy in the waist!
    I am down a little over twenty pounds and Im still in the same size, although very loose on my legs, and only a little loose around my waist. I cant wait to start dropping sizes! :grumble:
