I'm totally a fan of Goodwill and if you can find a couple Goodwills in your area...you will usually find that there are certain ones better for clothes and others better for household stuff. There are oodles of them in my area (south eastern PA) and they have plenty of those sizes in great brand names. I even bought a pair of "Lucky brand" jeans in one size smaller than I am now (a 12 versus a 14) as my next goal size for a whole $7.50 (they're $100+ jeans). I refuse to pay more than $4-5 for a shirt or jeans that probably won't fit me in a month or two. Also, sometimes your surgeon's office has a clothing exchange program for patients. They turn in clothes they have shrunk out of so other patients can have them.

Keep up the good work! :)

Yes they do and look in the paper or online for coupons. I am also an extreme couponer. Resale shopping and couponning gives me such a rush. Just to think gently used clothes for pennies on the dollar and almost free. The best thing i could have ever done. I am still in a 12-14. So this is the best place.for me.to.shop. Pants or jeans.with.zippers or buttons.

Thx. I'm looking for clothes. I haven't been able to get to goodwill because there is not one near me. I realized yesterday everything I wore to work this week is too big. It's a good thing, but I need a wardrobe.

Google consignment shop or resale shop. The cosignment shop will sale your clothing for you. Also call around to churches after you Google them also and they have some clothing as well. 2Nd hand stores too. Please if you can do that first before you purchase at any retail store.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
