I am so happy to have stumbled upon this today!! I have lost about 40 lbs and am just starting to add exercise into the mix. Yoga in the morning and a mini stepper (similar to the one you have) in the evenings.

Once the clothes get to a certain number (I believe 8 or 10) there is only a 1-inch waist difference rather than a 2-inch difference, so you will drop sizes faster. Once I got down to about a 14 or 16, I started dropping sizes much faster.Katie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733849582309631730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-16913787426048403042011-12-23T07:00:34.644-05:002011-12-23T07:00:34.644-05:00@Jen

I don't really have a "normal" number, because it fluctuates with my weight. At my lowest weight of 128 (a year ago), it was a little over 17%. During the summer, when I put on some weight and got up to about 150, it was around 26%. At 253 pounds, it was almost 50%!Katie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733849582309631730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-7177790427080616062011-12-22T17:13:43.457-05:002011-12-22T17:13:43.457-05:00Great info!

Was that your experience, and at what point did your pant size go down with fewer pounds? I think you said you went from a 24W to 8 at 100 pounds and now you are a size 4.annjeanbshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14582358617908342637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-12906974753400614832011-12-22T13:24:39.924-05:002011-12-22T13:24:39.924-05:00Thankssss definitely needed to hear that yesterday...Thankssss definitely needed to hear that yesterday!! lol.
