Clothing exchange?

I was wondering if anyone was interested in a clothing exchange?  I am going through sizes like crazy these days and I have so many of my larger clothes that other people may be able to use.  I think other people may be in the same situation.  Maybe we can all help each other out.

Currently I'm in a size 18, but I know soon enough I'll be in a 16 and need to get rid of everything that I have.  I can't afford to keep buying new clothes!  I think I'll be frequenting the second-hand stores right away.

I have some shirts in sizes 3X and 2X and also pants in sizes 22 and 20 if anyone needs them.  Some of my pants are petite because I'm only 5'2" so that may be a consideration for you if you're interested.

Hey There

Value Village is my best friend...I have been shopping there since my surgery.

I started in a size 22...I am down to a (sometimes tight) 14....depends on the style ...and down from a 3X top to a L or sometimes M.

Value Village..is my saviour....once my Panni is done, I will start shopping in regular stores.  By that time I don't anticipate losing much more.

Yeah, I plan to shop at second hand stores right away.  I bought a few good summer things brand new, but have been in second-hand jeans for a bit now.

I was hoping someone would have use for my old size 22s... maybe not... I might just have to donate them if no one is interested.

I am interested!!!!!!!!!!!  I am not to the 20's yet, but I am hoping to be soon enough!  I'm in my stall right now, so the weight has stayed the same for a few days, but I am sure that it will start to come off again really soon, and when it does I am sure it will fall off:)  So yes I am interested.  I don't have anything to exchange with you though:(

That's totally ok that you don't have anything to exchange with me!  As long as someone can use my decent clothes then I'm happy.  Maybe someone else has outgrown their 18s and can send them my way... who knows.

What sizes do you need now? in both shirts and pants?  I might have things in my closet or bags that you could wear.  I know the first 6 weeks or so I went down 2 sizes.

When I started on solids my stall lasted almost 3 weeks!! But after that long stall, it started coming off at about a pound a day for a bit.  I've been through several 4 or 5 day stalls too, but it does eventually go down.  I just have to keep reminding myself of that.  Sherry, my dietician, only wants me to weigh in once a week, but I just can't help but to get on the scale every morning, it's a bad habit to get into.
