You can always try to list them on ebay.  Perhaps you can swap with a WLS support group. I'm 8 months out and have just bought my 4th pair of jeans (a 12!!). I'm still wearing the 16s but not the others. I only buy stuff on sale for now.  Good luck!

 I live here in the OC - and I am trying to find a consignment shoppe to sell some of the clothes I have only briefly worn.  They are in no way designer clothes, but some are damned near brand new.  I googled consignment shops, only to find designer only ones.  I have only lived in the OC a year - so if anyone else knows of a normal consignment shop, I'd appreciate it.  
I have donated my clothes in the past, but I have also gone through quite a bit of cash this summer - and I am still in need of new clothes as I continue to lose weight.  A little selfish, but a girl needs CLOTHES!  lol.  

If you know of any, please post.  Thanks!

I need work out friends eating right friends support....250 lbs currently looking to get smaller....my lowest was 209

 Wow, I am so impressed!!!!  How did you loose 153 in only 7 months?  Did you exercise 4 hours a day or something like that?  I am close to having WLS and I am hoping to loose about that amount in 18 months.  Boy if there is a way to loose it in 12 or less that would be great.  Any helpful tips would be appreciated and I will follow your advice to the letter.  Sincerely Karen
