Question:
Help! Anyone out there that can help with size 20 clothes?

I have 4 children and don't have the money to continuously buy new clothes each size I drop (i am not complaining)I wear clothes that are too big for me and would love to wear the size that I really can wear now. I give all of my clothes to a friend of mine here at work that has her surgery scheduled for June. But after that I would be willing to share mine also. I would appreciate any help anyone could give me! Thanks friends. Its wonderful to be able to have all of you to share this experience with. The support I get from all of you is priceless(((((hugs)))))) please contact me @ [email protected]    — Nicole D. (posted on April 19, 2000)

I have two pairs of size 20 jeans. One blue, one tan. You can have them if you want. I am 5'6" and they are slightly long on me, so they would probably be long enough for someone 5'7" or 5'8" too. If you want them, send me your address and I will mail them out. Don't know if you would wear jeans down there in sunny Florida or not?

Hi Nicole, Do you go to a support group after surgery? Our support group started a clothing exchange- maybe you could start something like that in your area! Good Luck!

I feel the same way. Clothes are expensive and when you are not going to be in them for very long it doesn't make sense to spend alot of money on them. Do you have a Good Will or 2nd hand used clothing store. I do and I have been shopping there alot. You have to go often because things come in daily. But when you can purchase a pair of jean for $4.00 instead of $20.00+ it will be well worth your time. Becky Medial Gastric Bypass 8-19-99 starting weight270 98lbs gone forever.
