How many pounds will I need to lose to lose 5 inches off my waist?

Question

I'm an apple shape if that matters.

Answer 1

its hard to say for a number of reasons.

genetics pretty much decides how fat goes on and comes off of your body.

it also depends on how overweight and how tall you are too. i think a shorter person will lose more off their waist than a taller person would who lost the same amount of weight.

if i was to quess. i would say about 30lbs.

only reason i say this is because i have lost 15 lbs and have lost about 3inches off my waist. and about 3inches made a big difference in how my clothes fit. i was pretty happy after my 1st 10lbs lost.

so set smaller goals. an inch at a time and you will reach the 5inches.
