Jeans For Small Waist/big Thighs



Recommended Posts

I would buy jeans to fit my butt & thighs, then have them tailored in the waist.

I'm too late, was going to suggest the Levis.

I'm still in plus size, and have the best luck with Lane Bryant's "right fit" or wtf they're called. At least for dress slacks. For jeans the best fits I've found have honestly come from random jeans I've found at Marshall's, or the occasional pair from Dress Barn (but I don't like blingy jeans, or jeans that look like someone peed on them - both of which are hard to escape nowadays).

I'm completely a pear. The majority of my weight is in my thighs, hips, and lower abdomen, but I still have a distinct waist. From the waist up I'm about 2 sizes smaller than my pant size. When pants fit my thighs/hips, I get *huge* gaps at the waist; sometimes 8 - 10". That spells disaster if you need to bend over, or sit in a chair with an open back.

As my PsyD pointed at during my consult - "If you don't mind me saying, you're nice and trim in the shoulders and chest, and then at the bottom you kind of spill out everywhere." Awesome!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
