Clothes Sharing



Recommended Posts

Does anyone have size 12 or 14 clothes they are using anymore? I have a lot of size 16 that are falling off and I need more 12 and 14 but buying clothes is getting really expensive! So I was just trying to see if anyone wanted to share! :thumbup: send me a private message if you have anything!

I'm in the same boat. My 16s are hanging off of me. But I think I'll wait until I'm a definite 12, before I buy some new clothes.

I am going to thrift stores a lot more. Until I am at goal this seems to be the best way. You can get some really nice things at thrift stores. Sometimes you get brand new stuff with the tags still on.12_3_125.gif 12_3_120.gif

When I find a sale(Dillards) on jeans, I buy in reg size(12) and pair in next size down(10). Last month bought end of summer jeans on sale at Ds for $11.77 each. I must stop by weekly for sales as I like good clothes(fit better) but hate to pay full price.

It has been a struggle to stay stylish w/out spending a bundle shrinking. It seems to take some time. When I was 14/16 went straight to Avenue, hope those days are gone 4ever 4 every one here!!

We always take our clothes to our support group and share our clothes that way. Everyone brings their stuff in.

Do you go to a support group through your doctor's office?

I am buying a lot on ebay, especially jeans. I have even been looking for smaller sizes and buying them because I know I will need them soon. Most of my clothes are really big too, especially my scrubs. But I am going to wait until I lose some more before I buy new scrubs. I tend to wear everything until it is falling to the floor!

I've bought a lot of stuff at Goodwill. I've found some things in there that were brand new. Plus the clearance sales are great.

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
