Found something I don't like about my Sleeve

 Clothing as you lose.  It just is NOT fitting me at all.  Because I'm losing so much in my butt, thighs hip region and relatively little in my waist, I'm not going down sizes.  I'm in an 18 for my waist and some of them are still tight, I wear 20's in Levi Jeans still.  But my legs could fit in 14/16s.  So when I get dressed, I look like a have a load in my diapers.  Today I wore a pair of jeans that make my legs and butt look ok but I had to wear my spanx AND lie down to get them buttoned.

I'm not really complaining, I'm thrilled I'm losing, but this is a pain in the butt.  I want to show off my new curves but can't.  Grrrr.  

If anyone comes up with a way to make your body start burning the belly fat, I'd love to hear it!

You can find some that work. I'm shaped like that. I have to try on literally 70 pairs of pants and can only find about 4, but they're out there...

I hear ya sista! Even at goal, I still got my belly so I don't think its going to go anywhere until I have a doctor chop it off but like you, until then, I just shove it in some Spanx and go! LOL! I have noticed though that if you get jeans that are made with the more stretchy denim you can get smaller sizes and they are easier to fit both leg area and belly area! Hope this helps! I love the jeans from Old Navy, that is where I have been getting mind since surgery.

 Do you have a Fashion Bug by you? They have a line of pants that is color coded based on body shape, I get the one that is more generous in the waist but cut tight in the thigh and calf (I think it's the red tagged one). Old Navy is also good for that problem, and you can sometimes get great prices on their clearence racks. 

We must be related!  My tummy size is almost 2 sizes different than my legs/hip size!  (right now I'm squeezing into a 16 in my tummy)  I've been in several weddings and when I send in the measurements to order the dress they ALWAYS tell me my measurements must be wrong!!

Anyhoo - these Levi's are great. (they are called 'fuller waist')  They are almost 1 size bigger in the waist but hips and legs stay the same.

There are other colors too.  Good luck!

OMG - I'm your opposite!!! My waist and tummy are going down but my thighs are hanging around large and in charge.  My waist in probably now an  18 but those thunder thighs still like to be in 22's.  Oh well, I could say we should swap but that might look odd being two toned and all LOL LOL!

 We are having the same issue. I feel the same way. I have lost 59lbs but I am stuck in tight 18's on top and 14/16 on the bottom. I am a little self conscious right now and I wasn't this self conscious at my largest. I pray that these inches start shrinking in my back and stomach area soon. I swear I cannot see the weight loss :-(

Isn't this the BEST problem to have????  I love that problem!!!  HAPPY DANCE!!!  I shop at the thrift stores to help with the clothes costs.

LOL! I have the same problem!

Hi my name Cyndi. I just had my surgery on 4/24. I just wanted to know did your stomache every feel weird when you would bend down to get something or when your sitting watching t.v?
