I agree old navy jeans arent that great, and Torrid ones I feel have all the wrong porpotions. I always go to Rainbow, or Deb and Ashley Stuwart for my jeans and tights. My tops i usually get them at Torrid or old navy.

For the last 10 years I've purchased my jeans at Maurice's. Lots of styles.

Ugh. Ivan having the same problem and my LB T3 jeans in 14s are getting too big! I am really having anxiety about not having a go to clothing store like LB. I know that's weird. I should rejoice but I knew the sizes I wore and loved many of their styles. I went to New York and Company yesterday and was happy to fit in XL tops and I bought a pair of capris in 14 but they do gap at the waist. (They even have 4 different fits and this was the curviest one.). Tops will be great to shop smaller but I dread the pants. Let me know if you find anything!

Also, consider shopping Poshmark.com for LB jeans in 14. There are many on there that are slightly worn or even still new with tags and MUCH cheaper than retail. It is sort of an online thrift store and you can shop by brand. Careful though....it becomes quite an addiction. Great way to sell your clothes that are too big too and make some money to buy new stuff!

Since I lost weight, women's plus sizes don't fit me well at all. I have to wear juniors plus or regular sizes.

LB and Torrid jeans fit me terrible now. I find the cheaper the jeans the better they fit, which annoys me to no end.

Lee brand has a comfort band strip inside. I have always been large thighs smaller waist. So these are great to help with the gap in the back. I get mine at Kohls, and have even found some at Goodwill

I've found LEVI'S SIGNATURE jeans at Walmart to be the best so far. I bought two pair of size 12's a little over two weeks ago. One is is a Modern Straight (short), and the other is a Curvy Skinny. They were each $19.94. I have since sized out of them but am actually looking forward to buying them again in a size 10!!!!!

I don't like how the Levi's feel and the curvy skinny aren't tight enough on the legs for me, but I do like how they fit in the waist and the hips.

I like that they're not as thick denim wise as traditional Levi's but yes, the waist and hips fit amazingly well. A dream come true. Whew!!

Kohls' brand pants are good, too, forget the name. Ann Taylor Loft used to have a special cut that flattered our pear shapes nicely, if you need dressy pants.

I disavowed Lane Bryant years ago when they had only low waist jeans. I was like, naw bruh.

Surprisingly, my new favorite is the Kmart brand. Wide in the buttocks and hips, narrow waists, and they are straight leg. Cost about $20 each pair and made with a heavier denim than the Walmart brand so didn't wear holes in them quickly.

So much this.

When I was at my best weight (and a size 10-12), I had a 15 inch difference between my hips and waist. I never found a jean that didn't gap horribly. When I got heavier, Lane Bryant used to have a pants/jeans sizing system that had colors for the different body shapes and single digit size numbers. The Blue 3 Tall fit me like a dream. But then they discontinued those, and none of their new stuff fits right.

I'll be checking out some of the brands you guys recommended, so thank you!!

I saw a video on youtube where a girl just sewed the waist of her jeans to eliminate the gap.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
