Wow, it takes courage to finally admit that you have gone up a size! I know that during my one and only excursion into "heaviness" - about 20 pounds above my fighting weight, I continued to shoehorn myself into my size 30 pants. I had the whole muffin-top thing going on, ripped seams, popped buttons, you name it. And the impression of my belt buckle on my belly fat too! But I never, ever went up a pants size. In hindsight, I suspect that, in reality, I was easily two sizes (or more) above my usual.
