i don't believe that. i think it might vary person to person. i know with me, 3-5lbs is the difference between a size 2 and 4 for me.

It's about 5lbs for me. I think it depends on your size, and body proportion.

As the pp post said it depends on each individual. For me, 10 pounds is equivalent with changing a size.

10lbs is a good estimate for differences in size. But as other posters have mentioned it does vary based on the individual.

Re: Is this true: About 10lbs is 1 size

I lost 60lbs.
I went from a size 12 to a size 2, which would be about 6 sizes....so that sounds pretty accurate to me!! Then again, sizing can be SO crazy with certain clothes. On average I used to wear between a 12-14, now I wear a 2-4..

I think it may be about right.
I've lost 45lbs. Dropped 3 sizes.

I can fit into the next size, however, still not 100% comfy when doing the "Fitting Room Test"...LOL
Bend, Stretch, Sit, etc.
I don't like the red marks on me if the pants are to tight. I need room!

I think that's ABOUT right.

If I gain 8-10 lbs the pants are not fitting.

That's when I know to scale it back and back to my normal size! Chat Icon Chat Icon

It depends on the size and proportion of your body.

For me though it was about 7-10lbs is one size.

That sounds about right for an average. I've lost 76 pounds and I've gone from a 16-18 to a 6-8.

Well I was a size 5 and now ten pounds later I am a size 7. So yeah. Sounds right to me.

Re: Is this true: About 10lbs is 1 size

I lost five pounds so far and don't feel different at all as far as sizes are concerned. Chat Icon I think it definitely depends on the person.

Hopefully in another week, I'll be able to say that 10 pounds = one size. Chat Icon

Me too, I'm petite, so 5 lbs can put me from a 2 to a 0 and it's actually quite a pain when clothes are baggy/not fitted properly! I put on weight in my mid-section first so that is where clothes get snug/loose.
