Jeans will only shrink one inch in the waist and two in the inseam regardless of what you do. Other than that, alterations will have to do.
How Can I Shrink A Pair Of Jeans?
Yes you can give it a try, I have gotten this to work by washing in very hot water, and drying them in hot dryer, over again, and again, several times before you try to wear them.
You cut out a massive strip and sew them up again afterwards. You are very lucky to have this problem as I have put on 6 stone in the last 2 months and none of my jeans fit anymore. =( unhappy grandpa.
I went on a website once and it said to do this :
Fill your bathtub/sink with the hottest water you can get it . Put your jeans in there for around 20 minutes . Take them out and let them hang over the shower bar over night . The next day , after they are dry , try them on . (if they are not the size you want repeat the above] if they are the size you like and they fit you the way you want , wash them in HOT water and then dry them in the HOTTEST temperature . I don't know if it works but I'm trying it right now . I hope it works for both of us haha and good luck !

I would try to wash them in hot water first and if that doesn't work then try cutting some off of them and sewing back together.
