NYC clothing exchange



Recommended Posts

For those in the NYC area, I just received an email from NYU Bariatric Group. There will be a clothing exchange on September 7th. I've cut and pasted the info below. I'm bringing a bunch of things that no longer fit me and were very gently worn including my winter coat from last year. I hope everything gets taken. I also hope that others on this site stop by to drop off or pick up new things.

Join us in midtown Manhattan

Sunday * September 7, 2014 * 11 a.m.–2 p.m.

Where: BOTTOMLESS CLOSET

[in the Hotel Pennsylvania opposite Penn Station & Madison Square Garden]

401 Seventh Avenue, Level B, Suite 40 (bet. West 32nd and West 33rd Streets)

*** Take Elevator #1 to Level B; follow signs ***

  • Everything must be clean, intact and ready for wearing.
  • Intimates (e.g., workout clothes, underwear, swimwear, sleepwear, socks, hosiery) must be new/unused/unworn.
  • Accessories are great (belts, jewelry, scarves, neckties, purses, shoes, etc.).
  • Dressing rooms are available.

If you need nothing now, feel free to stop by with items you're no longer using and stay for the conversation.

Bottomless Closet, our host, helps disadvantaged NYC women enter and succeed in the workforce and improve the quality of their lives. All items not adopted during our event are donated to BC. Documents will be available for tax purposes.

Contact bandsterswap@yahoo.com if you have any questions about the exchange. If you'd like to help set up, please come at 10:00. If you're able to stay a little past 2:00 to straighten up, please do.

THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS, GoWalking!! I missed the last Bottomless Closet and was pretty upset about it. Their emails must be going into my spam folder because I did not see that email. (Let me go check)

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
