My Levi's arrived this morning (30" waist 30 " leg) they seem very small. I can get them up but problem is they are skinny fit and fasten at the hip (around tummy in my case!) so i can't get them together to fasten as there's about 6" off fat tummy in the middle so I was disappointed!

At least I only paid £14.50 for them instead of £60 new! I'll keep them in suitcase under bed and try them on every so often and see how much closer I am to fitting in them. It's annoying as the size 14 tiger T-shirt I got to go with them fits now, so by time I squeeze my tummy into the jeans the T-shirt will probably be too big!! I'll wait until summer comes and see how much closer I am to getting in them around my birthday.

I think its cos I'm so used to wearing Evans Jeans that have more material around hip/tummy area and fasten at waist. I was thinking these would fasten at waist and I'd only be an inch off. (waist is currently 31" but tummy is still 35 ")

I think by the time the 14 jog pants I got, are really baggy on me I should fit in the Levi's!... lol!

Anyway best get some exercises done... can't afford to slack now I know I need another 6" off my tummy to be able to get in those and be comfortable sitting in them all day! (I'm a full-time wheelchair user so jeans/trousers tend to dig in me and rub around top of legs and waistband if they are too tight)

I'm going very low cal/low carb and lots of water I think... mind you my monthlies are due but when I got on scales this morning I was only up by 1lb, so gone down 1lb from the other day, which is weird when its meant to be going up and monthlies starting next week?.. this happened last month too and then they were a week late... GRRRR.. best go easy on the choccy if I'm gonna have another 2 weeks of cravings again! :sad: :noway: :ohwell: :blushing:

    Han on in there and try again in a couple of weeks - you might be pleasantly surprised! But tight jeans are agony ...
