Looking to start clothing chain in NY/NJ Area



Recommended Posts

The idea is to line up women in varying sizes, and we would all swap clothes amongst ourselves as we shrink. I have 2x sizes, size 22 pants, 2x skirts, size 22-24 shirts from Lane Bryant. I am currently in about a size 18. If there were somone in a 22, I would giv them to her, and someone else would give me 18s. Please reply if you are in the NY Tri-State area and would like to participate.

I have thought about this many times and would be so happy to participate, but unfortunately I am in S. GA!! I do have a friend who has had lapband too and I have given her a lot of my clothes, the only problem is that I have no one to give to me. angry.gif I am down to a size 14 pants and a L top.

Good luck to you in this Quest for clothes.

I am a 22 now but anticipate going into an 18/20 quite soon. I have some new clothes, too and would love to participate in this. I live on Long Island.

It's like a chain. Sarah was a 22 and now needs a 20. She gives the 22 away to Jane, and Jill who is now a 12 has 20.

I have a sister and friend who had bypass the three of us did just this! We all think it's a good idea except for tastes like I dress business casual very low key and my friend and sis are very bold color people so it'd be great to have a plays closet for plus sized women

I just ended up buying lots of clothing on eBay for cheap. Some friends at work have me their "fat clothes" after they had their babies. some skinny people keep lots of different sizes on reserve, too :)

      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
