    find a brand that works for you. i have a hard time finding stuff that fits because i have large hips and *kitten* and a smaller waist. it also helps if you can wear low rise. they tend to work better.

    Being between sizes is terrible. Your options are equally frustrating: wear baggier jeans or wait. I would wait because if you are on a consistent weight loss track it might be a waste of money to buy new jeans now. But if you are desperate, cut your losses and buy an 18. Maybe you can find a particularly stretchy pair of 16 jeans?

    Get jeans that fit the hips and use belt for waist.Your waist to hip ratio will not change even if you will get smaller.This is how you are built.
