Does anyone know of a site, besides ebay of course where people are selling off or trading their "fat" clothes? I'm now into a size 8 and I don't have the money to run out there and buy a whole new wardrobe and what the heck am I supposed to do with all my size 10's?

A trade or barter website for people on a weight loss journey would be pretty awesome!

    I wish this existed. Honestly. I was wearing 26's and now I am 20's and 22's. I bagged up my clothes and gave them to a friend just to get rid of them. I buy one or two pairs of pants that are TIGHT so I would buy them at 16's or 18's and work my *kitten* off until they fit. Thats what I did. they last longer. I bought a 22 when I was a 26 and had to shimmy my butt into them lol. Bought them on sale for $20 (pair of pants) and can still wear them lol But got rid of all my fat clothes so there are no excuses of going back up lol Silly I know. Id love to take the 10's off your hands as Im hoping to be a 10/12 but it'll be awhile lol.

    Have you tried your local thrift store? It sounds kinda cheesy but they have very nice brands that people barely wore. And you don't have to pay for shipping! :)

    hmmmm....

    Craigslist has a clothing section.

    Thrift store....

    Vintage stores....

    I give my "big" clothes to colleagues at work. This way I get to see them enjoy the clothes!!

    I have some really nice clothes that are now too big - thinking of going to the consignment shop. Also need some new transition clothes, but do not want to spend a lot of money because I hope to continue to lose more pounds I have not gotten to the point to go to Goodwill or Salvation Army :-)... Anyone gone there?

    You should google/ask around to see if there are any stores in your area. There's a store here that pays you for your clothes if they are nice/name brand.. You don't get a ton of money but you can use it as a credit for the store or just take the money. It's like a thrift store but higher end, I suppose.
