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

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!

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!

      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.
