Al knew he couldn’t maintain this weight much longer. It was either going to go one way or another. He had lost enough weight to need new clothes. It nearly broke him to buy them all, but his pants could be cinched only so much. But now, he was faced with a new dilemma. To choose his health meant he needed to lose more weight. And still, he had all kinds of clothes. On Facebook one day, Al was following a conversation with friends who were kvetching over their weight. One of them mentioned clothesshare - not knowing for sure what it was or how it worked or even if it did work. After learning more about it, he knew this was an idea he could like. I share my clothes with others so I can share their clothes as I lose weight. When I finally reach my weight, I’ll have saved so much money not buying clothes, that I’ll be able to get a whole new wardrobe. Sally has a date coming up and she wants to look nice.
