    Received my order and tried the Spicy Tortilla flavor this morning. Not all that spicy but it's still quite tasty. I'm a little sensitive to caffeine and alcohol since surgery so the caffeine in the green tea gave me a good buzz and reduced my hunger. I would also highly recommend these teas for anyone on the pre and post op surgery diets. Or, for we banders, post fill for a day or so?

    I think it is better to order from the web site than from Amazon. I got free shipping and they offer more options for different products on the web site. I don't think it is available in stores. I started with the 5 flavor variety pack and now I know what refill packs I want to order. If you go on their web site they also have something called "Millie's Jump Start," which I ordered as well. It's awesome to mix with the broth for breakfast and has replaced my first cup of coffee in the morning (I still have a cup when I get to work).

    I have recently discovered millies Savory Teas. They are amazing! Only 19 calories each - they are a mix of green tea and Soup. It comes in a tea bag and is super handy for fill days, I imagine they would be fine as Clear Liquids as well. I don't work for the company, but I wanted to spread the word about this product because they really are a great alternative hot liquid. They are also vegan! (My favorites are Indian Spice and Tortilla Soup, but get the sample pack and try them all - they are all good!)

    I discovered millies Savory Teas right after surgery. They are 19 calories each. I love the Tortilla Soup and Indian Spice flavors. Check them out!

    I've looked around for other swaps. I found one that is only for under size 12! And another other one is "name brands only" They said if you shop at Target, TJMaxx, or Old Navy you aren't welcome there (those are the three places I shop the most, lol). I live in Manhattan so people can be kinda snotty about clothes. There is a plus size clothing swap that you have to buy tickets for in August, I might go to that.
    But what I need the most and am unable to find (and why I posted specifically on this board) is hiking gear. Especially a rain jacket/shell and insulation layer. Even on clearance these are forty or fifty bucks - just too much for something I might not even use!
    I don't think I'll have too much trouble with "regular" clothes - I'm a pretty active member of Freecycle and there are a lot of clothes offered on there in all sizes.

    I didn't think of Ebay! Thanks.
    As far as "regular" clothes, I've had a lot of luck with Freecycle for work clothes and jeans. I find Old Navy has great, cheap yoga pants. I really need stuff for hiking/backpacking specifically. It doesn't have to be high-end, just wicking and waterproof enough to get me through a few trips this summer.
