Every once in a while, my dad gives me a stack of clothes he isn't using (sometimes the clothes are pretty new). This time he gave me some sweatpants as part of that stack so I could figure out what to do with them. Well I thought heck ya I love comfy clothes. It was a new experience for me. I've never slimmed something down a couple sizes smaller. Here's some befores...
I took the inside of the legs in 2 inches.
Then I had to figure out a way not to sew the elastic at the ankles. 
I knew I wanted baggy sweatpants, but when I got to the crotch, I had to take it in a little. They were men's sweatpants after all.
Then, right below the elastic at the waist I took it in 2 inches. That way it blended in with the bottom of the elastic.
End result!
