Skinny jeans



Recommended Posts

I'm still in the beginning of the WLS process. Currently wear a size 20/22. However, I have a pair of size 18 red skinny jeans and size 18 regular denim skinny jeans from old navy that really do look fabulous on me. It's definitely a fluke - I usually don't wear skinny jeans EVER. How does that saying go...just cause they make it in your size, doesn't mean you should wear it? LOL. But these two pairs really look awesome. Other than finding an exception, I'd think probably around size 10 or 8 they'll look good on pretty much anyone.

I have always hated skinny jeans ... until recently. At a size 22 there was no way I was wearing them, but I'm in a 16 misses now. I just got some jeans from New York & Co. that I LOVE. They are actually a jegging (again NEVER would have worn them) but I got a size 14 and they fit more like a skinny than a jegging. They are stretchy and not too tight. I have an apple shape and, as I lose weight, all my jeans that fit in the waist end up bagging on my legs and really looks bad. These hit me just above my waist. I have too much waist so if they are too low it's neverending spillage of the tummy! And they stretch just enough to be comfortable and not baggy. They actually hold my belly in and show off my legs which are really pretty slim. I also got a pair of bootcut there and love those too! I'm 5'4 and jeans are always too long on me, but I got the bootcut in a petite and they are perfect. The skinnies I just cuffed once and they look great. I think it's all about the cut of the jeans and how they look on you. I guess never say never :D

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
