What do people x-change?



Recommended Posts

I have some things, but I am not sure if there is anyone out there my size. right now, I think I am still 18-20 I am not sure. I have some things that are 16 but maybe I should keep those just in case. I know I have some things I dream of getting into. I can't wait to go through my closet.

I'm starting to outgrow things too. I have some 20s, some 22s and some 18/20s. Oh and some 2x and 1x and XL.

But what I'm wondering is, what kinds of clothes do people exchange? For example, what about my expensive, but hardly used bras? Or is that considered gross because they are underwear?

Do people exchange in lots or do they do it piece by piece? I'd rather just send off everything in one size to one person than having to send out many pieces.

My mom sent me her 'fat' clothes. Since she found out she has Hep C. she has to keep her weight down to make her liver healthy and has been successful at staying a size 8 for years now. But she's quite the pack rat and never got rid of any of her other sizes.

First, she sent me two boxes of size 16s and XL/L. This turned out to be more clothes than I owned at the time but I freely admit I'm a bit weird about clothes shopping.

Then she sent me the 14s. There were FOUR boxes. Granted, 3 were small copy paper boxes. But still. I don't think they'll fit in my closet. (They don't now, that's for sure, but it's full of the 16s.)

I guess I'm not much of a pack rat because I can't comprehend having 6 boxes worth of clothes in your closet that are in sizes much larger than you currently are. Hopefully, it was freeing for her to send them to me. :eek:

Anyway, whomever I bequeath them to when I'm done with those sizes, will be getting quite the gift. The 14s in particular have some *gorgeous* pieces in there. Lots of jewel tones, which I love and lots of business wear which is probably good for me since I'm jockeying for a promotion.

I'd be interested in anything, I'm about to have to go out in my jammies. I'm in an XL top, quickly moving toward L, and a 20/22 jean (seriously pear shaped)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
