Free clothes to a good home

Hi everyone !  It seems like forever since i posted here !
Hope everyone is well.
I've just been puttering along, since i got laid off last month. Then spent the last month tending to my significant other, who had a motorcycle wreck.
The weight loss is really slow right now, but it's still happening. I'm down 107 pounds and last night and today was fitting into clothes that are 18-20 !!!

That said, I have two great big bags full of clothes to give away - mostly in sizes 22-24, some still in sizes 26 and 28.
Most of it is really nice, excellent condition. Much of it is stuff that can be worn in an office environment.
Among the special stuff - i have a couple beautiful business suits that i think i wore when i was a 26. Both are skirt suits, the skirts are long.
I was blessed that some folks gave me much of the smaller stuff - i would have been in trouble without their help, cause i started at a tight 30-32 and had to get rid of absolutely everything in my closet at one point.
So, i'd love to pass this along, by giving away all this stuff, too.
If anyone is interested please message me and let me know, as i'd like to get it out of here as soon as possible.
Otherwise, i'll go ahead and give it to the battered women's shelter.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!

Hey Gina !!
Thank you, honey. You're so sweet. It always makes me smile to see a post from you !
And yes, you're right, i do need new photos, lol.
I did just post two more on my page here, in my before and after album.
But i'm wearig this flowy green dress. I have to learn to wear more form fitting stuff, cause that dress doesn't do anything for my new figure !
Hope all is well with you, Gina!
I'll be posting more now that things are settling down some.

Yup, you need to post a new pic.  You look fantastic, what a difference!!  Where did that whole double chin go?  Baby it's gone!!  I also love the hair, it's too cute.  Keep up the good work and check in with us once in awhile.

Hi Steph.     Congrats on your progress.    Everything will start back up again...........just give your body time to "catch" up to where it is right now.   I"m in the same boat as you are girly .....
But then again...................I deserve to have NOT lost anything lately.......

I've got to find an excercise that I am and can get with and stick too................so that I can add morephysical activity to my life.  I'm doing more each day than I ever had - but it is NOT enough for my body to realize that it is excercise. !!

Hope tosee you soon!!
