Clothes?

Hi Veterans! I am 13 months post lapband operation and I've lost 62lbs and I feel FREE!!! But besides that, I cleaned out my closet on Friday night and I have two very large bags of mostly size 18W and 16W that I will NEVER need again. I know many are losing and don't want to spend money on that size knowing they will only be in them temporarily - so how and where do I post them to get rid of them? Most are comfy jeans, corduroys, some shirts, some dress pants (mostly black) a few dresses and skirts... at least 10 pairs of shorts - I live in Georgia so shorts are worn from April til October. I really would like to offer them to this forum - how do I do that? And if any of you are interested - you can have them you just either have to come get them or pay for shipping.

Keep some of the larger clothes. I found out that with the weight loss and loss of fat and insulation when winter comes you have to layer a bit and I needed a size larger or two sizes larger if I have to wear the thermal underwear to keep warm. I clean out my closets two or three times in the process of getting rid of 95 pounds and then filled the closets with smaller sizes. Fortunatly, I was slow at getting rid of all the old 38 and 40 jeans so have a supply to get me though this winter.

What would we do without Goodwill, Salvation Army, and outlet stores. I spent $18 yesterday and got 1 pr jeans, 1 pr nice slacks, 5 sweaters--one from Bergdorf Goodman.

I notice that whenever I clothes shop I automatically go to the larger sizes, then discover that nothing fits. Cool!
