Ok ladies under 5'4" If you're like me it's really close to "Pants - Buying Season" You know, that one time of year when you can buy Capris because they fit you like long pants for the ENTIRE year. This has been a major problem for me since I had VSG on 10/26/2016. Either way... Dress Barn has black "dressy" capris already on sale for $32.00 a pair. I bought them in a 20 and an 18 cause we all know the struggle. I don't seem to struggle to find jeans in the same way that I do with work appropriate attire, so...if you have the scoop on where to find these elusive wonders...please add or hit a sister up.

ok, ok fellow shorty!! i zm 63.:)

I would like to echo what TurtleQueen and proudgrammy said about Kohl's. They have an awesome Petites section. I am 5'2 and still go through lots before one works but they have tons including work wear and jeans. You can buy a couple and coupons will print out for the next week. Then go back and get the rest of what you picked out...if it's still there.

I'm almost five two and have been able to find pants that are short enough at Wal-Mart. I also hem my own pants and dresses if needed.

Yes the struggle is real!! I am 5.4 and on a freinds advice I bought some jeans called MISS ME. They are so long!! Plus they are not cheap!! I guess my plan is to wear my boots and hope they stay tucked in. I don't have anyone to hem them. I have a sewing machain but I am so illiterate about sewing. I can't even figure outr how to get my bobbin full. LOL I never thought to buy Capris. Might check em out. Do you just buy the longer capris?

At Dress Barn, they are capris. I recently bought some Gloria Vanderbilt "crop" jeans which are also perfect length. I always try them on to be sure, because apparently "capris" is a very loose term. LOL

I found some great Gloria Vanderbilt crop jeans at Kohl's recently!

I've never heard of this place. Is it regional. Are they online?

I wear the Abercrombie and Fitch ankle crops -- at 5 ft tall the 25/26' hem is the only thing that works for me without hemming them! It's exhausting finding short cut pants. I just searched "ANKLE" "CROPS" in the jeans or pants section and it works out for me. BUT they are always sold out. You would think more companies would start making clothes for Petite people in general!

      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.
