Hey Jane - I'd go shopping with you! Levis has some curvy fit skinny jeans that I live in and I bet would look good on you.

I'm still consignment shopping and there are some really good ones in Seattle and on the eastside. I can't remember if you're up north a bit, but if you're interested in Seattle I'll send you a list.

I have never head of the Buckle.

I just did a store locator and there are about 13 in Washington. Not sure if any are near you. It appears that they have Miss Me jeans too.

I just know they are big on finding the right fit and putting outfits together for you. They will even "pull" outfits for you.

We took my 16 yo stepson in there to look for a shirt and it was like Pretty Woman where different associates were just bringing shirts to him!

My favorite of all time are Joes Jeans. They're pricey but sometimes you can find them at TJ Maxx or Marshall's for like $50-60. My second favs are 7 for all mankind. They made my bootie look perfect! Again, great if you can find them for less than the $200 they average for at Nordys. I love Miss Me too but the plainer versions. I don't need my rear end bedazzled. And lastly, my go to for cute designer jeans while still losing is Guess Jeans. Especially if you have an outlet store or a G by Guess store near you. They also carry them at Macys. Skinny jeans, tall heels and a cute shirt is my go to outfit for a night out with hubby.

I have never head of the Buckle.

I just googled Miss Me jeans and their website is almost all acid wash is why I asked. What big retailer sells these?

I found the most perfect boot soft leather, cute, well made, comfy, but it was at a consignment shop and a size too big...arrgghh. Of course I searched online for that same boot and no luck yet. Still keeping my eyes out for a new tall boot with a heel. I have ankle boots with chunky heels. I have somewhat thinner calves so many of the boots I have tried on have too much width.

They sell Miss Mee jeans at the Buckle. I don't know where else they sell them, though.

Ok great info. Buckle and Nordys at two nearby malls. Sleeved in Seattle - in about 2 weeks I will be permitted to run wild without compression garments so would love to go shopping.

Ok is never heard of miss me :o

I just looked them up... Nice but I don't like my skinny jean to have all the embellishment on the back pockets. But the cut look really good!

Love Miss Me jeans, but if you want a classier look without being bedazzled try Rock Revival jeans. Super cute, kinda pricey. I would wait till your done losing weight to buy those jeans!!!!

You're a November girl right? I was a November girl last year .. It took me a year to get to this point.

Just think this time next year, you will be right where I'm at. Trust me, this year has flown by too!

So funny. I bought a pair of jeans today. They're a size smaller and they fit well, so I'm thinking that means they won't fit for very long. I'm taking them back. I think I'm going to wear my current pair until it either becomes embarrassing or I wear them out, and then shop. Hopefully I'll go down one more size in the meantime.

They're nothing special, just Denizen dark wash, so it's not a big deal to return them.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
