I was in the store today and realized that I had slip on shoes that no longer fit! I felt like I needed to curl my toes to keep them from falling off. It was a good feeling but they are my favorite shoes and still in good shape!

I normally just wear flip flops around the house (I work from home) or walking shoes if I am out exercising :)

Not sure I want to buy new shoes yet as I have a lot to lose yet. I think I'll just wear my walking shoes when I go out.

Great nsv. I cant wait for my favorite boots to fit again; they have gotten way too tight.

shoes that no longer fit!

first time i heard about shoes becoming to big, i thought it was a joke!!!!

I realized some time ago that it can/and does happen about your feet getting smaller, still sounds weird to me though

good for you on this NSV

Sue - great job on your weight loss - keep doing what your doing, it is obviously working :)

Yup! Same thing happened to me. I bought a brand new pair of stilettos before I got my surgery date. Tried them on today and they are a whole size too big. Going to see if the store will exchange the size for me

When I was just 3 months out I had to buy new shoes. I was in a size 8 1/2 or 9 depending on the shoe and now I'm in a 7 1/2 and I still have a ways to go.

I have already gone down a size at 8 weeks out! None of my shoes fit so I had to go buy new.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
