butterfly_gal 151 Posted April 20, 2013 So my birthday was a few days after my surgery so I never got to really Celebrate or anything, so I decided to treat myself to a gift. I didn't want to buy clothes just because I know I won't be able to wear it long, so I decided on an awesome pair of shoes. Here they are. I love them. 7 lilbearzmom, mysleevemylife, ProudGrammy and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I put on my dress shoes one day & my heals kept slipping out! Yes, they are nice shoes! It's great that you treated yourself. 2 rickyswife and Sherriews@yahoo.com reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rickyswife 41 Posted April 20, 2013 WOW , I never ever ever EVER considered my feet would shrink, never crossed my mind.... OOPS!, shoes are the one thing I STILL have been buying "because I will still be able to wear them after I loose weight".... SHHHHHHHHH, don't tell my husband this info.... on to earrings or are my ears going to shrivel up like dried prunes too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iggychic 1,405 Posted April 20, 2013 I think the shoe issue is less of an issue for lower BMI folks than higher. My shoe size hasn't changed and I'm nearly at goal. But my calf size has so boots fit nicely now where as before I had to wear them under jeans and not leave them zipped up all the way LOL I put on a pair of boots I picked up in Italy maybe gad 15 years ago (good gravy it's been that long) and they fit nifty keen just as they did when I was a size 2 so many years ago LOL 2 gmanbat and ProudGrammy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ProudGrammy 8,322 Posted April 20, 2013 ..your feet will shrink butterfly_gal longgggggggg time ago when i was a little newbie (or should i say big!!!)....... someone made a comment about their shoe sizes getting smaller i thought, how silly, are you kidding me?????????? boy was i surprised when i realized its true!!!!! you are a smart "cookie" treating yourself to lovely boots, shoes instead of clothes you will grow out of!!!!! now you can go and kick some a_ ssssss ("bad word police" are around and they don't like you to say certain words !!!) watch out for "them" they are everywhere in the past you might have rewarded yourself with some goodies (of course that would be pretty silly now!! hope your recovery is going nicely take care happy belated b'day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
