    I loved seeing someone doing the clothing exchange in Vegas. I’ve been involved with doing them locally and they help so much. Thanks for putting a spotlight on such a useful activity! Great job Leslie.

    Another great episode. In addition to great scientific news, I appreciate the good report on the clothing exchange. A clothing exchange is a great support system for people on their weight loss journey.
