Just got on Craigslist and gave away my first wave of clothes which were too big now -- several coats, lots of T-shirts, blazers, etc. Two trash bags full of clothes I will never wear again. Felt great, and the bigger guy than me really appreciated the clothes. Wahoo!

Congratulations, John! Enjoy the feeling.

That's so awesome!!!! Keep up the good work.

Are there any clothes swap groups in the DFW area? Maybe someone who is just a few months ahead of you that would like to sell/donate their clothes that are getting to big for them and get clothes from someone else who is a few months ahead of them?

I don't know, but that is a great idea. I live in a low population area of western Colorado, not too many people who have had surgery, but if anyone wants the next wave of extra tall 50 waist, 3xl shirts, they are welcome to them, I will even ship them to you for free!

John, You are Amazing

Way to go!!! I have been pondering what I will do with my fall/winter clothes. I know I won't be able to use them. The support groups in my area meet at odd times so I can't make it there. Perhaps a women's shelter could use them.

I love getting rid of my fatter clothes. I also really like it when my normal sized friends give me clothes they no longer wear.

Congratulations!
