Ladies, What Size Jeans Do You Wear?



Recommended Posts

Thanks for all the posts so far. It really is interesting to see the variety of sizes, even in people with very similar stats.

Height - 5'5"

Weight - 142.8 (That's what I weighed this morning - lowest ever. Shockingly, I'm still sloooowly losing weight.)

Jeans - 8s, 10s, mediums (My 10s are very loose now.)

5'6"

135

Size 4 jeans

But I totally agree that cut of the jeans matters! I have large calves (I say it's from running, but I've always had disproportionately large calves) so for the life of me I can't wear skinny jeans, they don't fit my calves! They have to have a slight flare or boot cut

Size 14 for pretty much all pants/shorts

L/XL depending on top, mostly XL

I am curious if I'll ever get to single digits lol. I'm nine months out and have lost 102lbs, I can't complain ☺

I'm 5'7.

At 290 lbs I wore a tight 24

At 260 lbs I wore a tight 18

Now at 173 lbs I wear a 10/12 depending on the brand.

I'm also curvy so I carry weight rather evenly but now that I'm less than 15 pounds from my goal weight I'm down to belly and I wonder what size I would be after a Tummy Tuck.

I'm guessing when I reach my goal weight I'll be a size 8 and after a tummy tuck I'll be a size 6.

Here are some very honest pictures of 260 vs 173 lbs on a 5'7 frame, loose skin and all!

Starting out at 254 My sweet hubby move the button out after I popped it off because they were too tight. So I would say I was a size 24.

I'm 5'5"

I'm 132

Jean size 2

Anyone notice sizes differ with designers??

Height: 5' 3"

Current Weight: 105

Jean Size: 0 - 4, depending on cut and manufacturer

I confess that I'm still wearing my size 6's with pins in them at the waist. I have a bunch of pairs in that size because I thought I was done losing weight.

I am amazed by that sizes vary so widely. How are we supposed to know what size to try on?

@ Your transformation is amazing! One of my NSV's was to see "daylight" between my thighs. I see daylight in your picture!

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
