Oh I would definitely be interested!  And I'd pass them on when I was done also.  No need to take pictures, that's too time consuming.  If you want to let me know how much shipping will be and all of that I'd love to take whatever you are willing to part with.  Jenn

YEAH!!!  you rock.... If crying in front of the mirror is something to be embarrassed about  I better go hide under a rock lol.....i'm sooooooooooooo glad they fit and that you like them! ..I just brought a big bag of cloths to the support group meeting a couple of weeks ago...I am not changing sizes fast any more ..I think I may be able to go to the next size in a few more lbs but I have been holding onto these 18s..... we will probably be in them together in sept!! :)  Congratulations again QT!  We want pictures!  Hugz  Estelle

Jenn, that is so cool! I don't blame you for crying - I probably will too! To satisfy the clothing jones, I adore Goodwill and consignment stores. Right now I buy there for DH and the kiddos, but I can't wait until I can shop there as well. That can be a lower cost alternative to filling out a transitional wardrobe! Congratulations!

Jenn- Don't worry about crying.  I will too when the time comes.  One of my pre-op projects was to make bins of all of the different clothes that I have in different sizes.  I have some really cute things in size 26/28 and, honestly, getting to that size is one of my main goals right now.  I know others are looking forward to 14/12/10 whatever, but honestly, I just want to be able to go to a store and find something in my size or know that if a place sells plus sizes (like jc penney or kohls or land's end or whatever, that I can buy it).  To get to a 22 is out of this world...especially less than 1 year post op! When I was organizing my clothes I found 1 thing that was a 22/24 and I debated whether or not I should even hang on to it because I thought I'd probably never get to that size or if I did that it would be so long from now that it wouldn't be worth the storage.  Hearing your story gives me hope that my dreams may come true faster than I had imagined. Keep up the fantastic work and glad to hear that you're dropping sizes so quickly and that some of our smaller members are able to help you out with clothes to get through the transitions!

{{{Jennifer}}} I am SO happy for you!  Isn't it a freeing moment to realize that you are in a size that you have not worn in that many years!  I found that each size was a very healing thing.  I think that most of us have cried in a dressing room.  I had a melt down when I realized that I could not shop at Avenue, Lane Bryant or Catherines any more and I had no idea where to buy clothes, or how to figure out what panty size to buy! I am so proud of you and your hard work! Hugs,
Jennie
