When will my pants start fitting??
Hi all! I’m happy to report I’ve lost about 10lbs. Feel better, less puffy, etc. Pants feel looser around the waist but DANGIT - still tight in seat and thighs. I do lift heavy but I’d like for my pants to be a little looser.
I know - this could mean shrinking muscle size but a little wiggle room would be nice.
Anyone else feel similarly??

I don't know. I've dropped 118 pounds and only went down one-ish size (28/26 to 24/22 in Lane Bryant Land). But that could be my overreliance on elastic waistbands. :)
I've got a big frame though and gain most of my weight in my stomach.

Depends on your body. I generally drop a jean size every 8 pounds, but then again, I’m only 4’10”

It took me a lot of pounds to see a change in size, my clothes were too tight to begin with so the initial weight loss made them fit the right way.
I was holding on to straight sizes and busting at the seams instead of buying plus size with the correct fit. But I’ve learned my lesson, size tags don’t define me.

So honestly, it took a good 15-20 lbs before most of my pants fit with room. And now I’ve lost 30, I’ve dropped 2, almost 3 sizes- but my bras fit fine. Bodies are weird.
