I have just lost 10% of my body weight!

[NotPerfectlyAdverage]

As above I am so happy. I was 15,7 and I an now 13,8.

Weirdly Shotsy says that's 10% but if 2 stone was 10% surely my starting weight would be 20 stone?

I started in May and have gone very slowly up my doses. In fact I'm currently on 5mg.

There has been zero noticable difference in my clothes. Was and still am a size 20.

Well done! Although you're right, you have lost a lot more than 10%, more like 12%! I'm surprised you are still a size 20 at 13st8 though, have you tried any smaller clothes on? You might surprise yourself 😉

I tried on a dress last week in Dunnes. A tshirt type top with a flowing skirt. The 30 definitely looked better on me so I bought the 20. The 18 still skimmed my tummy.

The only thing I can think is that I was way bigger than a size 20 to start with but as things are baggy or elasticated they stretched?

I have some zip up ankle boots I can zip up for the first time in years so my ankles are thinner. Maybe I need to re measure myself?

How tall are you. I started at 13.1 I’m 5’2 and wore 14 sometimes 16 jeans

I'm 5,4

Op, it took a longtime for my clothes sizes to change.
5”5’
sw 118 - probably size 20
cw 85.5 wearing 16, but could fit 14.

most of my clothes are 18 or 16, so I fitted everything for a long time. I lost a stone a month for 3 months and was still size 18. (Just looser). My 14s were from a few yrs ago when I briefly fit them and longed to return.

after a year, I finally do.

5 stone lost
3 more to go

its a marathon not a sprint op. You will get there.

well done on yr losses

Bloody well done!! That’s my first goal too. I started in June (I’m in week 12) and have only lost 11lb 😭 have lost a fair few cms though and feeling better 💪🏻

I wasn't happy to start with loosing 1 lb a week but I'm fine with it now. I think I'd rather stay around 5mg if it keeps on working. I wanted to get to 12,7 but my upper bmi would be more like 10,1. I don't think I could maintain at 10.1. I want a weight I can maintain. Anyone I will figure that out as time goes

Im 5ft4. Started at 14 stone 10 and size 16. (Edit, and some size 18) I don't think you are a size 20

I have measured myself today and I have definitely lost some inches. But my waist is 41" cringe.

I might treat myself to a trip to Next and M&S to try some size 18 things on. I'm not aiming to buy new clothes unless I have no choice but would be interesting to see if anything smaller fits me

I started at 16 1 told myself I was an 18 questionable! I am now 12 3 and am in a 14 bottom and 14/16 top but I have big boob's. Some of my size 18 clothes i can still wear. So go and try on some clothes.

I've just hit this milestone as well, 10% off. 15 3 though. 4" off my waist. I'm tall and have gone from a 20 to an 18.
(Roughly. Who knows with sizing these days?)
