Donated Mine

I put 10 giant trash bags full of cloths in donation bins for Africa. Wasnt even thinking that they won't fit anyone over there. Maybe they'll make stuff with the material. The sizes were 24 to 16 and 4x to 1x even shoes. I was so excited to get rid of them it just didn't set in I guess. I did keep two fav jeans as memory of how big I got.

I had some family members that could use my too big clothes. My cousin said it felt like Christmas. I was glad I could help her. When I decided to go through my clothes I was trying on everything and basically everything was too big. I had to go shopping. I didn't buy much because I'm only four months post op, but the clothes I had were so big it didn't look flattering anymore. Luckily I had some clothes in my attic that I haven't worn in years because they were too small.

I just went through my closet tonight for the first time. I am 3 months out and down 65 pounds. I have no clothes!!! I am shopping at the local thrift shop this week. Can't imagine spending a lot of money on clothes I will be getting rid of in another month or two. Pants are now an 18 from 24. Shirt is size XL from 3x.

I donated 2 bags of size 18 pants & xl shirts. Plus 18months kids clothes it all went to the salvation army. In less then 1 week. I really need size 13 pants I'm still wearing size 16 which was my smallest size until I lose at extra 24lbs so I cam shop if i have extra money by then.

I'm going to sell my clothes and give away anything that does not sell. There's also a few consignments shops that will give you money for your clothes as well. I have so many clothes to sell I'm having a hard time getting it all photos.

Going back to salvation army got a bag & filling up the next. I didn't want to keep buying pants but if I wear the bigger size makes me feel like a sack of potatoes.
