HOW MANY LBS SHUD I LOOSE IF I AM SIZE 16 AND WANA B SIZE 10

Caps lock is cruise control for cool.

Edit: Seriously, though, I agree with what everyone else said--it depends on your body. Congrats on the loss thus far, and keep trudging at it!

:laugh: Lol !! Pls someone.. how do i delete my post, thankfull for those who gave advice.. i didnt know this site had secret spell checkers who JUDGED on the way people typed. If u havent nothing nice to say then dont speak on this post. i was looking for some advice. i think one person pointed out i spelled something wrong.. i got the hint but thanx 2 the other 10 people telling me again

You can't delete it. But don't be embarrassed. Congrats on your loss. Forget the haters on here. You have to have thick skin around here. It sucks that you have to have it on the "General Diet and Weight Loss Help" board, but apparently you do.

When I fit into a size 10, I was about 160 lbs. I am 5'4". It is different for everyone.

I'm roughly the same height as the above poster and at 160 I was in a 14 (US size). Now at around 130 I'm in a 6 comfortably. So, it really does depend on your frame, body build, yadda yadda. When you find you need a belt to keep your trousers from falling down (I recently learned to not call them pants when talking to folks from the UK!), you need to go down a size. There isn't a magic number that dictates when you need to wear smaller clothes. Good luck.

In high school I ranged from 120 lbs to 160 lbs. At my highest weight, I wore a size 16.

As an adult, I stayed between 130 lbs and 150 lbs most of the time. I wore a size 10.

Last year, I wore a size 16 again, and weighed 167 lbs. I stayed in those same pants until I was about 150 lbs. Then I was able to buy a 12.. and a 10... and an 8..

Now I wear a size 4. And guess what? I weigh pretty near 150 lbs.

It might not be able how much weight you need to lose. Just what kind of weight it is, more muscle weight? or more fat weight? eat a calorie deficit and do some strength training, then eat back to normal and you should be a smaller size and nearly the same weight.

edited to add: I am 5'4"

Pmsl ok guys argue amoung urselfs. this site is for advice, help n support i thought. obviously not ! Go n abuse n argue with each other. quite alot of horrible mother f*ckers on this site thank god i dont have the horrible ones added. one of yous should start a post lets see who can the most horrible person on here, n have fun with tht !! n again as i sed thnx who gave advice etc xox

What?

I wore 7-8 at 115.

OP,

Folks around here can be jacka$$es for no other reason than that's what they feel like being at the time. Just ignore them.

As an FYI, on the internet, typing in all CAPS means you are yelling. That's why you were asked.

Congrats on your eight pound loss! I’m currently 176 pounds at 5’3. I am a size 16. I can zip my 14s but I’m figuring that I need to lose about 10 more lbs for them to fit comfortably. It’s hard to say the amount of pounds you need to lose to fit into those jeans, but just keep with it and you will get there!

I am 5'10 and was a size 16 almost a month ago. Now just about into a size 12. I'd like to lose 40 by July. Slow and steady wins the race. Drink alot of water and watch your calorie intake. Nothing under 1200 per day. Watch your sodium intake as well.

Jeez you guys are mean. It's a weight loss forum and not a grammar forum. I am a hater of bad spelling and grammar myself, but that's no need to embarrass anybody that has come here for help and support. How do you expect anybody to better their lives if they end up too scared to ask questions?

Some people here need to find a better way to spend their time!!! There is no need to pummel the poor girl! Some of you should be ashamed of yourselved for stooping so low!
