It's really hard to believe that just 1 year ago i was 319lbs & down from 355 & 2 weeks post op.      It's an interesting feeling not having spring/summer clothes to pull out and try on to see what still fits you or what you cant wear cause of those winter lbs you gained.     I've gifted most of those clothes to fellow patients as needed.  Some have been gifted back and gifted twice.    I have to go shopping for my spring/summer clothes this year which I can't really afford so I am asking that anyone with sizes 12/14 please see what yah got that you can gift to me.    I volunteer and speak at Franklin Square Hospital Center at the Bariatric Institute's Information Sessions telling my story and doing a question and answer session and like to dress up for those it gives more of an effect. When people see you and the thought that you might have had weight loss surgery doesn't even cross their mind and then to see your before and look at you standing their all decked out.  It's inspiring so I love to do that.   So any dresses spring/summer/****tail/formal/ evening even or whatever will be most appriceated too.  I am working on becomming a self help coach and motivational speaker full time and persuing that full force right now. I have also started Weight Loss Surgery Patients Against Childhood Obesity programs offered to all students 4-24 to avoid or overcome childhood obesity.    I promise it would not be going to someone undeserving.  I am very passionate and try to do everything I can to help others.      Please contact me if you have some clothes to gift.    Thanks so much,  Laura

Love your avatar!!!  Keep up the good work.  I feel you on the clothes.  It can be expensive.  I am still larger than you so I cant help but I wanted to give you kudos and if you need help with your childhood obesity program let me know.
