I Have A COMPLAINT!

Hi Everyone I have a COMPLAINT! Not a big one mind you, but a rather funny one! Ok, here it is--Since I am now 2.4 years Gastric Bypass Post Op, and 7 months PS Post Op, I went from a size 3X tops and 22-24 pants to a size L top and size 10 pants. All my life I have worn pants that went up to my waist with elastic bands and shirts that when almost to my knees, and now--my pants no longer come to the waist, I am wearing jeans with zippers and instead of Pull On's they are now called Low Rise which means thay are meant to sit at my hips and my tops now sit at my waist. I am having a hard time adjusting to the new clothes fit. You should see me about 100 times a day trying to pull my pants up to my waist just to feel comftable. Ha Ha Now for my question...Anyone else out there dealing with the same problems???? Marianne

Yes ,, Yes,, Yes!! I hate these low rise pants. I keep thinking my pants are falling down. I know it's what all the teens are wearing but not for me. My sister told me that if you buy in the Junior's section that all the pants are low rise. But if you shop in the Misses it should be regular pants. I didn't even know the difference between jr's and misses. I was always plus! ~Angel 255/222/126 Highest/Day of Surgery/At Goal!

Ohhh I could have written this post myself!! I dont know how to buy jeans where my undies arent hanging out in the back!!

I detest the low rise jeans I found. Levis were the solution. They are higher cut. I love them and bought them in 4 colors plus 2 cords.

Try to find mid rise, they are PERFECT!!! I find the misses are much better, but also discovered that most of the junior pants at Sears fit me fine, but not in any other junior department. Also I found Levi's at Walmart I think they are 8 short, boot cut, absolutely my favorite comfy pair of jeans that I have ever had. I LOVE THEM!!!! But now they are getting a little big on me, but the 6's are too small. Oh what a dilemma, hahahaha. Shannon

I have not had this problem. As Angel said, if you buy in the Misses section, you can find normal pants. If you're looking for jeans that fit well, (you're going to think I'm crazy), try Walmart. I bought Pale Riders there and they fit perfect. They even come in short length, which I need. And best of all, they're only about $20. Joanne
