Well, I only have three pair of pull on type pants/jeans pair that really fit and two shirts...and my favorite and only pair of pants split in the butt area today! UGH! Good thing I am scheduled to have surgery in April...the hopeful date is the 10th. How quickly did you all start shrinking in clothing sizes? What did you do then? Keep buying and giving away? going broke for a good reason? HEHEHE Is there a place to trade clothing or to resell?

I too did Good will and thrift stores. Tons of great stuff...my best bargain... a 3/4 length leather jacket... brand new with store tags on it...$40...You read that right!!! I have gotten jeans, pants, shirts, sweaters, pullovers...everything but undies... (I'm a little funny about my drawers!) I prefer Goodwill to the Salvation Army and there is a great thrift store in Centerville...I hit it a least monthly.
