I am mostly Goodwill for clothes. Guys here recommended it, and I see why. I get most of my work clothes here, and occasional buy some casual clothes at Ross or Wal-Mart.

I don't change sizes as much now cause I'm nearing my 1 year sleeversary. I've saved a lot of money and I get to recycle clothes back to goodwill so others can benefit too.

I use to be in the 5XLT size. Online I was doing both Casual Male where I could do both online and in store shopping for clothing. Also did King Size, and Eastbay. Now I can basically go where ever I want for clothing now. Lately all of my sports gear (which has been mostly sports compression wears) I have been getting from Sports Authority and Walmart. I am down to a 1 to 2XLT.

Sorry to invade guys, but I like all things shopping related. Just dropping this here. Sign up for their mailing list and you'll be able to take advantage of their sales. Depending on where you live they also have brick and mortar stores.

Well......turns out that my need for big&tall gym clothes has gone away.

I was able to have my surgery several months sooner than I anticipated when I started this thread.

I'm very fortunate with this.

My current gear is sufficient to see me through until I drop off a few sizes and back into regular sized gear.

The Under Armour pants are cut long enough to meet the "tall" demand.

Looking forward to the months ahead.

A couple weeks before surgery I went into Casual Male XL to get some cargo pants. When I was leaving the salesperson tried to get me to sign up for all sorts of future rewards stuff. I kindly thanked them but declined. I didn't go into details with them, but that may very well have been my last time walking into that store.

Very cool feeling.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
