@greenbank runningforfitness.org/faq/we. It has a calculator, it kinda suggests around 2-3 per km per kg lost. seems high.
Thanks, that site seems to be a very simplistic version of the VDOT stuff that @lamby posted above.

I used to run a 19:25 5k at a not so svelte 83kg. That says that if I lost 4kg at the time i'd be sub 19. I decided to test it the other way anyway. I can now say that getting fatter does slow you down.
