Don't get me wrong, I am excited to say I am wearing a size 6 jeans, but I am just a little concerned with this. I mean I am 5' 2.5" and weigh 160lbs. I want to lose another 42lbs. What size will I wear when I get to my goal? If 10lbs = a size I will be smaller than a 0.

Sizing sure is different than it used to be. When I was in high school and was about 120lbs I never wore the teeny tiny sizes. I was always around an 8or so.
Im so happy for you. The shorter a women is the smaller her sizes get. Don't be alarmed. You are 5"2 for a totally lean fit women its not uncommon to see them wearing size 2's and even 0's. I know a few. Trust me when I say its completely normal.

That kinda sounds werid coming from a guy a suppose. I just wanted to say its normal. The taller a women is the more her sizes sqew. Tall women who are lean alot of times wear 6's-8's even though tecnically their bodies are the size of 2's 4's.
