Bring you FAT Clothes and Make a Difference!

We have had SO many members lose weight, we want to BRAG!

 

Whether your "fat clothes" are a size 4 or 24 - we want them! We will display one piece of clothing for each person who's lost weight and donate the rest to clothe someone in need. Each piece of clothing will represent someone who has gotten results, and encourage other members they can be the next success story. Personalize your favorite "fat clothing" by signing it or writing your mantra on it.  Email Bonnie if you have questions.
