It is very understandable to feel the way you do but after you lose even more weight, I bet you won't have an issue donating your clothes!
Basically, he is very ignorant on the process.
He also does not believe that anyone actually needs it, that it should just simply be a mind over matter to stop eating.
And he has stated that while he will support my decision to get weight loss surgery, he will not help facilitate it.
Sorry to read this.Did your GP explain why he won't consider referring you for weight loss surgery?
I do not know why I'm have hard time get rid of my old clothes, I know I will never need them again or I never weigh over 700lbs again. To me I think I'm have difficulty time get rid of them is because my old clothes were my Security blanket. Did anyone else have difficulty time get rid of their old clothes after weight loss surgery.
no, I didn't have any trouble. I got rid of things as soon as they were baggy.
to me, keeping too big clothes around give me permission to gain the weight back again. If I know I have big clothes to go back into, I might let myself gain back into them.
No, did not have this issue. There are a few items of clothing that if I saw them in my new size, I would buy them again though! You're only a few weeks post op so probably still working through everything. Would definitely look to donate what you no longer need as soon as you are comfortable with it - I'm sure it's some kind of psychological safety net! It's hard to find larger clothes second hand sometimes, you may be doing a huge service to someone in need! ****pt one pair of pants to always remind me how far I've come).

The bible says if you have two coats, give one to a person who has none. I always donate clothes and other things that I am no longer using. It helps me to have a clutter free home and closets and helps a person who needs what I no longer do.

Which "North Bay" are you in - there are probably a hundred north bays around the US, and many more around the world. This is much the same as other regional references such as "tri-states area" which is only meaningful to locals of the half dozen tri-states areas in the country.

I often vomit up fries, pasta, bread, and meat. But everyone's pouch is different. So to avoid the 'exposure' to my surgery and vomiting, I often stick to soup and salad. No one in my life knows except for my husband.
