Jeans - Crucify or Cuddle?

A bit of a personal milestone for me at the moment. I thought I'd never wear jeans again after abandoning my one pair of New Look bootlegs. They made my legs and bum look good, but crucified my waist, stomach and crotch. Now, I've lost four pounds in the last few weeks, so I thought I'd give it a go with Next lift and shape jeans, which have a kind of elastic quality all over. My first pair arrived from ebay yesturday, and they fit, they hug, and they don't sink their denim jaws into my remaining flab. So, I ordered another pair in another colour.

Anyone else finally found jeans that feel good?

    I tend to find most jeans are ok for me - I shouldn't wear hipsters as I am too chunky for that - but I just buy them a size bigger to avoid the muffin top!

    Getting into a pair of size 12 (UK) GAP straight leg jeans was a personal milestone for me - however I now need a belt to keep them up after running across the road and feeling them slipping down my hips.

    I love my jeans. Always have but I do remember having a love/hate relationship with them. Now that I have lost weight it's back to love. I am a Levi's gal though.

    I love them. I have had lots of jeans milestones! My favourites are my J brands. I have also been wearing skinny jeans lately, which I found never looked good before.

    I had a dream of wearing a size 30 jeans in my favorite designer, Kenneth Cole. They were my fantasy, my ideal. Before I started this journey 7 months ago, I couldn't even dream of getting into 32s. I'm sitting here wearing my size 30s right now, wondering if they aren't getting a bit too loose and maybe I shouldn't order the 28s. And damn, does it feel sooooooo good. These jeans are the best NSVs I have received on this entire journey. Thank you Kenneth Cole.

    Love my jeans. I always go for the curvy fit (no plumber's crack for me) since I've got a smaller waist and larger hips and thighs

    I love to wear jeans but when you're a waitress, you kinda wish your business would let you wear shorts instead when you're running around back and forth to get drinks and food LOL
