Answers:

Depends on your height and weight to start (and your body type).

Remember muscle weighs more than fat, so that will affect you as well.

For me, I am about 5'4, and I started out at 155- size 12, and I went down to 140, size 8. I only lost 15 pounds and went down two full sizes, but I was also in REALLY bad shape to start. That makes a big difference.

It is good to get into good eating habits before college, because I can tell you it hit me hard, and I am still paying for it!
