I have a few bags of nice dresses + blazers (office wear!) that are mostly about size 22W. They don't fit any more and before I donate them with my other clothes to Value Village or something I thought I would offer here. They are all in good condition. Let me know - am in mid-town Toronto.

The pre-RNY me would have been like 'SCORE!!!!!!' but, I will be in the same boat as you soon enough!! So long size 22 clothes... and work outfits... and dresses.. that I spent a long time shopping for... and a lot of money on.....Argh!

Very excited about getting new things and the 'new me', but like... building up a good fat girl wardrobe is TOUGH man!!!

I know right?! Even funnier, I did call a couple of consignment places and it's hard to even get rid of the stuff! And I already donated 5 huge bags to Value Village - this was just the REALLY nice stuff that I kept for here / consignment.

I can't get rid of it! lol

Ahhh that's not good!!

I have quite a few nice Ralph Lauren/Calvin Klein/Maggie Sottero dresses that I didn't want to just give away, but you're not giving me much hope here!!

Maybe you could make a post on Kijiji? You could try selling first and if no luck offer for free :-)

As excited as I am to get rid of my fat clothes, I know I will start adding it up in my head and cry!

I probably should have done that but honestly it seemed like so much trouble to sell individually! Consignment I would have been up for but the stores literally don't accept clothing until March...so that wasn't helpful! I left bags with value village of every day wear. I assume it will help someone who needs!

If you haven't had any takers, I could certainly use some new clothes! I haven't signed on to surgery yet and am trying to lose the weight through diet and exercise. Therefore, its gonna take me a bit longer :) I promise to pass them on to someone else when they no longer fit me.

Thanks,
