This could be a tricky question, I'm not sure. How many inches, on average would someone lose, around the hips and waist, for each 10 pounds lost?

I know muscle weight is a confounding factor, I'm really after an average, kind of general idea.

The thing is that I would like to tarck my body measurements as well as my weight, but I have no idea what to expect in terms of inches lost.

Thanks in advance

Everyone is different! There isn't any average amount that would be useful to you. You'll just have to lose the weight and see what happens!

It is hard to say since everyone is different and I think I read it here, but it really helps: If you take two rolls of paper towls, one full roll and one 1/4 full, and pull off ten sheets from each, you will notice the difference more on the 1/4 roll than you will on the the full roll. So what I am trying to say is that losing ten pounds isn't the same from everyone.

I agree with everybody above... but i have read somewhere that one inch of fat is 7 pounds... but everybody is different so DONT quote me on it lol.
