CONGRATS ON THE CLEAN OUT!!!  And the weight loss of course!!!!  It does feel good doesn't it???  And swapkins is an excellent opportunity to get the next 2-3 (or more) sizes down on winter and summer items at no cost. 

For safety and other reasons, I believe people will be pm'ing Elena for directions to her home.  She'll be posting closer to the date of the Swapkins (which is in October) on how to contact her.

There was also talk after the last Swapkins that sizes over 20w and 2x should be donated to the goodwill or a shelter prior to Swapkins because most people coming have already lost the higher sizes.  But I don't remember what the final outcome of those discussions were.

See you there!!!

I'm interested in coming to Swapkins,but thought that their would be larger clothes also.3x-4x!I've already lost quite a bit of weight and i hope people don't donate first to the good will.Everyone who's losing should be able to have an assortment of clothes to choose from.Not such small clothes.It would be more beneficiary that way.

                                                   Thanks Tracy-I go to Maple Grove coffee on Saturdays in case 
                                                   your wondering who this is.

Feel free to bring any size.... I have no objections. I have size 20-24 pants and up to size 2X shirts that I will put into the pile. Pre-ops are welcome too of course... that's when I attended my first Swapkins. It was the most amazing event ever. I (cheezy I know) went home and cried... of happiness that there were so many people that related to me.

I certainly didn't mean that was the final word -- it was just suggested after the last Swapkins and I thought it should be clarified so people knew what was going to be there -- Sorry about any confusion.....If you need clothes now, maybe you and Moonbeam should hook up for a "pre-Swapkins".....And it would be great if more people came to these events -- the more the merrier!!!
