Apple shapes blow. I can fit my hips and thighs into a pair of 15/16 jeans but do you think it'll button around my fat stomach? NOPE.

I have the same shape so I know how frustrating it can be! My advice: keep trying on different jeans until you find something that fits. It takes a lot of time and patience but I have found one brand of jeans (Angels sold at DOTS) and now that's all I buy! When you find what you want, buy a few pairs to hold you over while you lose weight. Good Luck!

oh man, i hear it about the pear shape. with the weight i lost, it's mostly up top. so my pants are baggier but they definitely aren't falling off. it's frustrating, b/c i feel like i haven't lost any weight.
