I LOVE Lands End!

This may be the wrong forum to post this in, if it is I'm sure the mods will move it, but I wanted to share a wonderful story with you guys.

I've lost 80 pounds since I was banded in March of 2007. I am a professional woman and have to wear a suit to work everyday. Needless to say, the cost of clothes has been a serious problem as I've been coming down over the past year and a half.

In February I ordered about $400 worth of clothes including a whole bunch of their button down no-iron shirts. They were great (I prefer the brooks brothers shirts but the cost was too much considering they wouldnt fit for long). I wore the shirts for about a month and then... as expected... they were too big. I called back and ordered a whole bunch more in a smaller size.

Three weeks ago I called to order (what I hope is) my final size. The really nice rep on the phone helped me find the order number for the style I wanted (no longer online) and she saw the past orders. I mentioned that I had lost quite a bit of weight and the clothes no longer fit. She told me that they will take them back even though they were worn and there is no time limit! So, I re-ordered the clothes and promptly mailed back all of the clothes from the two previous orders. I got the credit on my card today. I only wish I had known about their policy sooner! You dont need to keep the receipts, just keep the order number (or store it online).

Hope that helps some people out there look good! :)

True... and although I love the tax deduction from dumping stuff at goodwill, I'd much rather have clothes that fit without maxing out my credit cards!

Thanks for the reminder - Lands End is fabulous and I love their button downs, too! Was just saying to a friend that when I lose weight I plan to buy a fab wardrobe for work from them.

Gosh! How great. I have ordered from Lands End alot. I love their bathing suits. They last great for Water aerobics.

When I get into the smaller clothes, I will definitely order from them again.

Thanks for the info.

WOW! I didn't know this, and I just dragged 2 garbage bags of gently used LE clothes to Goodwill. So now I know for next time. Thanks for the reminder; wish I had seen it sooner!

      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!
