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

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
