When I first suspected I had IBS I read somewhere that tight pants around the waist can actually trigger an attack. I totally believe it. If I wear jeans they are usually unzipped a bit and the ends tucked in. Let the beast lose, I say. Right now I am sitting here like an old man with the waistband of my elastic waist pants pushed down under my huge belly.

I've done the same thing. They're just so much more comfortable sometimes.

Ya just gotta have comfy shoes and comfy waistbands and comfy bras and comfy hair clips (hate those claw things that grab your scalp) and on and on......just wait till you get to be my age...there are days that I'm just glad I'm alive and if I'm comfy, too, it's a really, really good day!  ha ha

Hi Carol,
I can't stand anything tight around my waist, either. I don't even wear jeans anymore because they are too stiff and uncomfortable....it has to be knit pants for me.
BTW, I like your new pic...the flower in your hair is a nice touch!

Thanks. It was Valentine's day so I put that in my hair to feel festive.

its why I wear dresses most of the time.. no defined waist but still look nice.. or when I wear pants I wear tops that hang well below the waist so I can leave the waist open.. my favorite pair of slacks has a tie front mom thinks is so out of fashion but I can leave them unbuttonted and partially unzipped under that tie and no one has a clue! I just loosen or tighten the tie as needed!

If you have a pair of button up pants that are uncomfortable and you're going to wear a LONG shirt over top, then you can leave them unbuttoned by taking a STURDY rubber band through the loop, then hook it around the button on both ends. Instant "stretchy pants"!!!

BTW - I love your Target Treasure. My SIL is pregnant and I just finished giving her all my maternity clothes. I looked twice when I gave her my capris. They just had a wide elastic at the top... maybe I'll ask for them back when she's done....
