CLOTHING SWAP ANYONE?



Recommended Posts

So as I am progressively losing weight, I notice how much clothing I can't alter regardless of how skilled my sewing is. Some things were just too big and I don't want to toss them into the bins nor do I really want to keep posting lots of this or that size to sell.

SO I thought, if there were people going through this as well, maybe we can set up a clothing exchange for those who really don't have the money to go shopping for every size they drop? I have so much stuff that I would rather see go to someone and then pass it along. Anyone interested? Maybe just pay for shipping and $2 an item this way we all help eachother or something like that. Not trying to gey rich, just hoping to help out.

I am currently a size 16/18, 213 lbs...big butt. I have clothing up to size 26. Shirts, jeans, dresses, slacks and even bras that I have never worn.

If anyone is interested in starting a swap, we can email pics and work out details but let's keep it a blessing to others! Sometimes I just need a pair of jeans for a few weeks to by...

Hope this catches on!

This is an awesome idea. I haven't clothes shopped in over 2 years since getting fired from my last job. I've lost over 70lbs so far from my highest and am living in leggings and baggy tops and hoodies. It's sad but kind of funny. I must be one of the only women without a ton of sizes to shop through in her closet. I had been a size 20 forever and hadn't worn anything smaller since high-school. Thank God i still have leggings that fit. Going to go shopping next week sometime after pay day for basic Ts and sweats. I didn't realize how much i hated shopping when i was bigger. I keep thinking im still the same size until i put the stuff on lol.

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
