For those who have lost a great amount of weight - was there a certain size people stopped taunting you at?

I find that the teenage boys in any city will taunt any person slightly overweight. My question is - did any one who lost a great amount of weight notice a certain size where the taunting stopped? A 14? A 10? Was there a very distinct line where it stopped? Call it mental research.

Update:

Ah, I'm not losing weight because of the taunting - well, maybe partly - more just that I want to be healthy - and to be able to wear a swimsuit, hahah. I miss swimming. :(

    I went from a size 22w to a size 12 and looked great. But it also depends on how tall you are or how short you are I am a 5'2 person and a size 12 after a child was good. As far as teenage boys are concerned, they also taunt if you have the wrong hair color, wear alot of makeup or wear no makeup they are making up for their own insecurities. If you are looking to lose weight do it sensibly and when you are comfortable with where you are at you attitude will reflect it and you will find more boys checking you out
