Any apples out there love Lane Bryant's new sizes too?



Recommended Posts

I finally broke down and went back to Lane Bryant today to buy a pair of zipper jeans as I had gone up in size from my last pairs and refused to buy any hoping I'd lose weight and they'd fit again. Was wearing those pull up spandex jeans that you can buy at Penney's or Walmart.< /p>

Lane Bryant has totally changed their sizes and styles of jeans since I previously had purchased the smaller ones. Anyway being an apple and always with the big waist and no butt or legs it sucks getting zipper jeans but now I'm a yellow, won't mention the number but it's bigger than a 5 and smaller than a 7 and we're not talking "juniors".

Anyway they're more comfortable and always seemed to become too short on me anyway so I'm ok with breaking down and buying the bigger jeans especially since the numbers have chanced so I don't know if I'm a 24 or a 22 or what now. brandyII.:tongue2:

Hey Brandy,

Initially I liked their new sizing too. But for some reason they were still too big in the butt for me. It didn't last long. I went from size 26 to 16 pretty quickly and I am too small for most things in lane bryant now.

There are so many options in the "regular" store, I don't know how to shop!

Well you're lucky, I still need L.B. stores as they've been my refuge for many years. I'm bigger on top than bottom so it's always been hard for me to shop in regular stores. They told me to get a size smaller because of the spandex in them which I did and then the legs and butt weren't too big and the waist still fit, thank God! My daughter is 6 feet tall and it's nice that they have a good selection of tall clothes too. brandyII

      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.
