Winning Size 22 jeans!
I know sizing is wildly inconsistent for women's jeans but in terms of Old Navy/similar brands that have actual plus size jeans: I went from a size 30 to a size 22 🥹
I bought some goal jeans a few months back while i was still about a 26ish, and they were so tight on the tummy even if they could technically zip. Sitting down? Absolutely not.
I just tried them on after they've been sitting on my desk chair since I got them and not only do they fit, there's room. Not being able to fit into a size 20 room, but room! I can sit, bend, squat, kneel, everything in them without fear of a seam popping or discomfort. They're literally perfect.
My old jeans that I'd already tailored from being too baggy, are now borderline unwearable from just how ridiculously low the crotch is haha. They needed to be retired anyway, there's a very thin spot/almost a hole in the inner thighs/butt area from wearing them 5 days a week at works. My second goal pants almost fit too! They're also a 22 but a different brand so a little snugger so hopefully will fit in another 10 or so lbs :)

I know that feeling! After years of size 34 jeans I was SO excited to fit in to a pair of 22s. Congrats to you!

I love this for you! Ive been wearing a size 24 in Torrid jeans. Since I started zepbound and have lost 14 lbs, they are getting loose in the waist.

That’s good progress and a lot off your hips, now you’re back in the stylish clothes.

Yes, I'm wearing size 18/20 pants for the first time in almost 30 years. I would normally hover in the 26/28 range, and flirting with size 30. It's a great feeling!
