@@laurenella82 I've noticed that a lot too...there should be some kind of clothes exchange link or to sale, buy, trade whatever! There's so many Of us switching sizes all the time. There may already be one I'm not too good at finding my way around this site yet.

There is a whole thread devoted to this.

I am a clearance rack person and also go to places like Ross, Burlington, etc. The thing is, I still have to look nice for work, for interviews, etc. And I can't wear the same pants every day. Lol. So even if I shrink out of them, that's fine. I hate looking frumpy in baggy oversized clothes.

I need a professional / executive look for work. I used Gwynnie Bee , which is an online clothing rental site. You rent several outfits at a time , I choose 3 at time for $79.99 per month. You just return anything ( free shipping) you are done with or don't like. They start at size 10 and go up from there, so there are lots of choices.

I also use upscale online consignment shops. My favorites are Thred Up and Twice. They often have have 40-50% for new customers. When you couple that with thrift shop savings , there are some amazing bargains. I got a pair of Michael Kors jeans new with the tags still on for $13 , tag said $129. The clothes come clean and shipping is included for returns . Easy peasy!

I remember the first time I lost weight. I got rid of all my size 16 clothes. Now many sizes larger, I wish I was that size

      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.

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
