Hahah. Engrid - I had a similar situation. To be honest I'd lost a bit over the last couple of years and had been wearing some size 30 jeans (my regular pants were 32s and maybe some 34s, though. The jeans were really stretchy). Anyway, I had made it to about 330 lbs, and my jeans were close to falling off. I was going on vacation and needed new jeans. I ordered 3 pair of jeans 1 size smaller from the same company, and threw in a size 32 dress to get a particular discount.
Sadly, I could barely get any of them on, and this was after losing weight. I sent all the jeans back and kept the dress because it was so inexpensive, but it, too, did not fit and was way too tight.
I managed to lose another 10 lbs before vacation, and discovered a stash of old jeans, including some size 28s that I had put away, well, years before, and they fit! Nicely! It was really, really lovely. My next sign was when I realized I needed new work pants because my were giant, and was able to buy some size 26s. I still wear those now, but they are too big and will be replaced when I can comfortably wear size 22s.
Congrats on your Victory Jeans!
