So, I have a pair of jeans I was going to donate as they had "shrunk" so much over the past year and a half that the length was just no longer working for me. 11 pounds lighter, my pants have miraculously lengthened - lol. Actually they have a little stretch to them and had been being expanded so much my thighs and my bootay that they had nowhere else to expand but up. Now they have fallen back below my ankles where they should be. So happy :happy:

    Funny, I've seen a siliar thing happen in my pants. As a matter of fact, now that my tummy is no longer holding them up some actually drag on the floor. Here's to our lengthening drawers!

    I'm just starting out but this is even more motivation ( not that I needed more) to lose as I have several pairs of pants that have indeed shrunk up into highwaters. Now I know better!!!

    Yes, I blamed my dryer countless times for "shrinking" my clothes. Funny, I have yet to blame it for stretching them back out recently.

    I have several pairs of pants that had "shurnk" and were too short that are 4 or 5 inches too long now (and also completely unwearable in the sense that keeping them up is impossible). :laugh: Shirts too. Oh, the funny excuses we make to stay in denial about gaining weight.
