Just wondering what your experiences have been… how many pounds did you lose for your tight pants to become comfortable pants?:smile:

    Almost ten pounds. But I'm on the low end of losing weight so it doesn't take much.

    I have a pair of jeans that were so tight I could barely get them on and would not wear in public. When I lost 17 lbs, they fit perfectly. They're "the sweetheart" cut from old navy, boot cut. I'm 5'11, so a 1 lb loss on me is a very low % of my total weight. Losing 10 lbs for me is like a 5'5 girl losing 5 lbs.

    I am 6 ft 1 in, and I started out at 270 pounds. After 15 pounds, my previously snug pants were fairly loose.

    I'm 5'4 but I'm big on the bottom. :laugh:

    The Sweetheart jeans are one of my favorite cuts of jeans to wear, right next to my Gloria Vanderbilt jeans. They cut and fit are just so perfect on my shape and they make the booty look good.

    None of my jeans were close to fitting me when I was 205lbs. I could do them up at 195 but would not wear them out due to muffin top. I am now down to 185 and can wear 3 out of the 4 jeans from before (bought some pajama jeans so that I had some 'fat pants' to get me through the next 30 lbs or so :P).

    One of the pairs is Sweetheart from Old Navy. I never used to like the fit but now that I am liking the mid-rise again, I think I will feel more comfy in these in a few more pounds.

    My favourite comfiest jeans are American Eagle size 8 but I still have another 10lbs before they will be comfy again.


    So.....long story short, 20-30lbs before they are comfortable again!

    I'm 5'2" the jeans are a little loose in the waist but tight in the but and thighs. I can get them buttoned but the waist slides down when I sit and the legs look a little high because they get hung up on my calves. I've lost 5 lbs since I last tried them on.

    Thanks for your input.

    I'm down a little over 15 pounds from the beginning of the year, when I had to hold my breath to get my jeans zipped up. Now they keep slipping down, and I have to wear big T shirts or I'm... not decent when I sit down.

    For my "tight but still wearable pants" about 10 down and they were comfortable. I'm 15 down now and have not had to break out the smaller pants, though I expected that going in. Although I'm an all-over weight gainer, I definitely packed more of my early weight on my lower half, and my later weight on my upper half. Really depends on your own build.
