I am a teenager...I am a plus size girl and yes.. I do wear low rise jeans...the fit comfortably in the ass, and all! Where if I buy pants that the band is at my belly button, it look like my crotch is at my knees!!! I've noticed that every since I started Atkins the first flab to go was in my FUPA (Fat Upper Pelvic Area) and know my pants fit even better...but I guess if you don't like it don't look! Best Advice ever!!
