Is anyone in need of clothes?



Recommended Posts

I'm finally able to clean my closet out and I have a couple of stacks of clothes up for grabs. They are mixture of sizes 26/28 and 30/32. They're mostly from Wal-mart or Fashion bug. They are well used and not in perfect condition. I've tried to weed out the ones with tears or stains. One of the stacks is my nicest things, but be aware they are well-used and not necessarily super fashionable. The other stack is stuff you'd use only if you're really in need of something to clothe your body. I've been there many times, so that's why I'm offering them in case anyone is in need.

In both stacks there are some shirts, some pants, some capris, some sweaters. No jeans or dresses, but there is one skirt in the nicer things stack. Each stack has about 10 items in it. I may throw in more as I finish the laundry. I don't want to sell these, but I do ask that you pay shipping. PM me if you're interested.

What a great idea, Melissa.

I was at Lane Bryant this evening and I realized that I get to buy a whole new wardrobe...maybe two or three time!!! And I'm sooooo psyched about that. I need to get someone to subsidize my shopping sprees that I see in the future.

I have one person taking some of the items, but here are descriptions of the rest.

Shirts (all of these are knit fabric)

1. 26/28 Lane Bryant, Brown sweater with multi-colored horizontal stripes (this one is stretched out a little and has a small hole near the neckline. It was one of my favorite shirts, so I included it.

2. 30/32 pink shirt. Short sleeves, with vertical ribbing. Has a little underlay so it looks like you have a white shirt layered underneath it.

3. 26/28 olive green, short sleeved t-shirt with some texture to the fabric.

4. 26/28 Light blue short-sleeved shirt with round neck and flowered pattern all over. There used to be a small ribbon around the neck area, but I removed it, so now there are small holes where it was.

5. 30/32 white button down, knit short sleeved shirt. This one has vertical ribbing on it. It has a couple minor stains, but is still very useable.

6. 2x off-white, mock turtle neck, long sleeved, flares slightly, is actually maternity, but not noticeably. I used this for layering under things in cooler weather.

7. Size ? (probably 26/28) Light olive green turtle neck

8. 26/28 dark red cardigan with loose knitted pattern with holes. It’s meant to wear over something else, it’s very see-through. Ties in the front.

9. 4x oversized dark-ish powder blue sweater, fairly heavy. Has a few buttons by the neckline.

10. 26/28 black ribbed, long sleeve shirt with v-neck.

11. 30/32 long sleeved, pink shirt. Looks like you’re wearing a white shirt underneath.

12. 26/28, long-sleeved, black shirt. V-neck, looks like you’re wearing a white, collared dress shirt underneath.

Pants/capris/Skirt

13. 28 straight khaki skirt. Drawstring waist, non-stretch fabric. Slit for movement in back

14. 26/28 light blue capris with drawstring waist and pocket

15. 26 average Lane Bryant light tan slacks. Material has stretch, but don’t look like stretch pants.

16. 26/28 Petite, navy knit pants. Elastic waist, no taper to the leg, they come straight down

17. 26/28 black pants. Same as above, but not a petite size.

Please let me know if any of these things would be of interest to you. You can either post on this thread or PM me.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
