Weight Loss charity?

HI -- I am wondering if anyone has heard of any weight loss charities? I have been going to the gym since Feb of 06 and have lost 55lbs. Which may not sound like to much, but i also lift weights to keep my metabolism up all the time. Now my problem is all my clothes are to big and i look slopy where ever i go... especially at work. I am wondering if there is a charity out there for those who have recently lost weight and now cant afford new clothes that fit?

Any ideas? :) thanks!
 
I don't know about charities, but I go to our local second hand store a couple times a month, and have found some good jeans, etc. there on occasion. You have to really be willing to look though. :)
 
for your area check out - they are a worldwide yahoo based mailing list that has people give away stuff - everything is free, you just have to pick it up from the person who's giving it away when it's convenient for them... I see clothes on the list I'm on all the time.

PLaces like marshalls, tj maxx, Filenes basement all have good clothes at pretty inexpensive prices.

Or you could always apply to be on TLC's What Not To Wear :D

(ooooh they are looking for women in chicago - and upcoming shows in Miami and DC - Someone nominate me - please - oh crap you can't tell me you did though :D
 
see. my problem with the TLC show is that all my clothes look good on someone 50lbs heavier ;-).

I think its funny that they have all these charities helping people who are big to loose weight, but nothing to help the people who have already done it.

thanks for the ideas though.
