nicksmommy 139 Posted June 3, 2016 Anyone post op that is looking to get rid of any of their capris (or other summer pieces) that don't fit anymore? I need a few pair to tie me over until I have my surgery next month (mid to late July). I dont want to buy new and spend big bucks, as I am hoping to not be in them for too long after that! I will pay for the items and shipping. Thanks!! Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
finding_onederland 226 Posted June 3, 2016 Have you tried Walmart? They usually have good options that won't break the bank. probably cost less than someone shipping stuff to you. Just a thought. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nicksmommy 139 Posted June 3, 2016 I will try there also! Thanks for the suggestions! Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KristenLe 5,979 Posted June 3, 2016 Try some consignment shops. I don't have any in that size or I'd send them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Christinamo7 4,042 Posted June 3, 2016 I think the only thing I have in my goodwill bag are 18s, or I'd send them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OutsideMatchInside 10,166 Posted June 3, 2016 Just hit up Walmart. The cost of shipping even free stuff is more than just buying something at Walmart. I would get sundresses though instead of pants, you can get more wear out of a dress post op than pants. A loose dress can be fixed with a belt. Pants are going to sag in the butt.

esskay77 785 Posted June 3, 2016 I might--will have to check my closet. Where in MI are you? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nicksmommy 139 Posted June 3, 2016 Thank you for checking!! In Warren. Just outside of Detroit. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
esskay77 785 Posted June 3, 2016 I have 2 pair of black capri's -- size 20. They are identical (I usually buy multiples!). I will actually be in Michigan in a few weeks but I won't be in Detroit--I'll be up about an hour and a half north. Did you want me to bring them with me and then you find a way to get them? Let me know. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daisee68 2,493 Posted June 4, 2016 Check out Poshmark.com. Tons of used clothes (and some new). Great way to fill your closet while you are changing sizes and then you can resell them! You can filter by type of clothing and size and brand Sent from my HTC One M9 using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will pay for the items and shipping. Thanks!! Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App I have been shopping at my local Goodwill and Salvation Army. I found a cute pair of white capris there yesterday only $3.99. These two stores have been by best friend during my weight loss. I started my journey in a size 24 and now am a size 12. My surgery was in Aug of 2015. I would never have been able to purchase clothes at the regular stores because of the cost and the rapid size changes. I make weekly stops just to see what they have. Good luck on your surgery and enjoy your journey. It is hard work but well worth every minute. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

esskay77 785 Posted June 4, 2016 @@nicksmommy I should also tell you that I lied (inadvertently). I have 1 pair of size 20 and 1 pair of size 18--they are identical and a bit stretchy. I'll be in Bay City from June 18 - 24. On the 25th I'll be in Hale and then head back out on either the 26 or 27. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
