A1ikou 0 Posted April 12, 2006 I have really wide feet and don't even bother looking in ordinary shoe shops anymore :cry Have any of you had your feet shrink either in width or size as the pounds have dropped away? It would be nice to think there is a chance of finding some really trendy shoes that fit as time goes by... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HeatherGurl 0 Posted April 12, 2006 I was in an 11 Wide width and now I fit in a regular 10! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms. Vicki 0 Posted April 12, 2006 I have just begun my "banded journey", but with just 24 lbs gone, my shoes are getting more loose. My friend had gastric bypass last year and she lost 2 shoe sizes as well as going from wide to "regular". She can wear the "cute" shoes too. I'm with you. I want to get rid of the grannie shoes I have and get something sexier. Can't wait! Let's do it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheetsin 714 Posted April 12, 2006 Now I wear an 11 or 12 wide. When I've lost weight before, and before I got fat, I wore a 10. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

legallyKristin 0 Posted April 12, 2006 Definately! I used to be 298 and in a 8.5W, at 247 I'm now in an 8W, but when I was 215 I was in a 7.5M. Only 30 more lbs to go!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fiveholts714 0 Posted April 14, 2006 Man, that is what I am hoping for too. I've read several posts about people having their feet shrink some or become more narrow - so there is hope! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NaturalBeauty 2 Posted April 14, 2006 Yep, I think everything shrinks, even the feet! I started out in a regular 10 and even though I can still fit a lot of my 10's, I can also fit some 9 and 9 1/2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
"Just" Paul 1 Posted April 14, 2006 My feet went from 11 wides, to regular width. had to get new shoes. also, all my socks fall down, had to get new socks too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pepsi32861 0 Posted April 14, 2006 I was a 10 1/2 wide width now I am a 9 regular! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marimaru 7 Posted April 14, 2006 9 1/2 to 10 (preferably wide, but could squeeze into some regulars) before, I'm down 55~60 lbs, and I can wear most 8 1/2's. I still get some wides, but many aren't. The shoes that I wore for my sister's wedding a week ago were 8 regs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Archermom 0 Posted April 14, 2006 I'm in "Next size Violin Case" now but I hope that eventually I will be able to at least fit in some nice 10 1/2 or maybe even 10. WHooho- that would be soooo cool! :clap2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
I'llsucceed 1 Posted April 14, 2006 For sure they do- I was a 8 1/2 & when I tried some shoes this past fall nothing fit! I had to go buy 2 pair both were 9 1/2. It seemed more in my length BUT couldn't have been true b/c now I am almost 40 pds down & now my old shoes are fitting again! thank goodness! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
