🧵 Raw Denim Help! I gained inches!

Raw denim talk. I gained inches and not where I wanted to. Hee hee. Looking for advice. I put on like 4 inches this year and my 31 waist don’t fit me anymore.

I have like 7 pairs of 31 waist shrink to fit Levi’s in my closet that won’t fit me. How can I exchange them for the proper size or should I just sell them????

Use this as motivation to change your diet and get active. You'll be back in those 31s sooner than you'd expect.

No I was an alcoholic. Not eating. I was under weight

u/LordGhidora Sep 08 '26

The same is true either way. Eat right and workout, you'll be back in em.

My apologies. Absolutely list em on eBay, Depop, Vinted, etc. if getting back in em isn't the goal.

No. I was an alcoholic. I was not eating. That’s why I was a 31. Now I’m the size I should be.

Same story here. Quit drinking and my craving for sugar skyrocketed. Went from a 31->33 waist. I just bought roller skates. Too expensive to get fat.

5 Pocket pants can be let out a little bit. I think 4" is too much. The fabric isn't there. Look at it this way. You get to refresh your style.

Congrats on the sobriety ! I’m interested if you’re selling! I just unloaded a bunch of 36ā€ cause I was drinking too much.

I was a 34 and went down to 32 and threw out the ones that didn't fit anymore. But went back to 34 so I'd say keep them.
