Pants hurt! Most leggings/yoga pants have these thick constricting waistbands to help tuck in your tummy-- so painful. Has anyone found a legging that doesn't do this?

I’m in the same boat. I hate going to work because I have to wear suitable trousers which need to be held up by a belt. As soon as I get home, I have to get rid of the waistband in the hopes my pain may die down a bit. I was lucky in Primark and bought a pyjama set and I am so happy to be wearing trousers again to bed (I feel more comfortable) as they basically have no waistband 🙌🏻 Xx
