I looked at a ton of these on ebay and aeropostale based on pp recommendation, only one style was 23, the rest were 27! I had a 27 waist until I had my kids!!! but I had major junk in the trunk so I made all my pants. I even convinced my x to help me make a 'butt form' like a dress form. I just put on thick silky tights, had him use the skinny duct tape strips trick, and very carefully cut down each side, tape it back together. We had used a yard stick like you would hem a skirt to mark the bottom, I cut along those lines and made a base. I used that 'great stuff' insulation foam and did a few rows at a time and stuffed the inside with news paper, peeled off the tights, covered it with a fresh pair and voila! Butt form! How weird is it to be able to examine your own butt in your hands!
But the pants I made on it fit soooo well! then a few months later I got pregnant with Harriet!!! almost nine years later, I think it's time for another craft project
I am holding steady at 160 and while it's not the ideal 150, I think my body likes it here and so... Ok one thing at a time
