clothing exchange - gathering

Is there anyone interested in a clothing exchange / luncheon?    I think it would be a great way to have a reunion of sorts and to introduce some of the new WLS patients. 

Let me know what you think.  I am willing to host it and plan some fun activities to go along with it....


For the newer folks on the board,  our clothing exchanges are free and it is an great opportunity to get rid of clothing you "shrunk" out of and want to pick up some new ones to fit the new size you. 

We also have a pitch in lunch so we can exchange recipes and try new foods that are WLS friendly.



I really miss seeing and hearing from all of you.

Thanks,
Tracy

The beauty of a woman is not seen through what she wears. It is seen through how she carries herself and the way she doesn’t allow herself to settle. Don’t ever let anyone take for granted the beauty that is within you. Stand firm and know that you’re a wonderful person. Always remember your value and respect yourself. I’m so blessed to have you in my life.  Sometimes we all need to be reminded how special we really are!

i would love to see everyone again but I am not sure since this is a busy time of year for me. I think I have something nearly every weekend before christmas So if you get a date let me know and I will check my calendar and it may work out.  I don't have many clothes to bring. My husband has more than I do. He has lost so much weight with this lifestyle change and exercise.  He has went from a looser 38 to a 32 waist in the 3 1/2 years since my surgery.  He wants to maintain now and complains that it is very difficult the same way I complain every day of my daily struggles but we are both managing to maintain.

I am like Sue.  This time of year is packed.  I would love to meet everyone, so if you do plan a gathering I guess it depends on when and where. 

 

I am only one, But still, I am one.  I cannot do everything, but still I can do something.  And because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do
the something that I can do.

Hey Terry! How are you doing? If you have an 14s you don't want I'd be interested - send me a message!

Well every weekend in December is booked for me. But I'd be interested if I didn't have to drive too very far. :) Maybe some time in January?

I would love to come to one.  I am new to this forum.  I usually hang out on the RNY forum.  I am booked until January.  I have some size 18 and 16 to get rid of.

I am thinking mid to late January depending on the availability of my church.  It is very simple to get to off I -69 if you are coming from either direction, north or south.

I was thinking about trying to get some other fun stuff involved. I would like to do a door prize drawing and maybe even play bingo for some prizes.  I am gonna check into it and see if I can get some prizes donated if anyone has contacts.... let me know.

Facebook me Tracy Sharfman or send me a private message and I will send you my cell number. 

Let's try to get this going again.  It was sooo much fun!

Huge hugz,
Tracy
