mariamitani 405 Posted May 5, 2013 I have wide feet and measure at size 9 womens . Being over weight I usually buy size 11 shoes so they fit. I'm 80 pounds down and have about 55 to get to goal 153 lbs. I'm 5'7''. I'm worried about buying shoes then dropping therest of the weight and then my shoes get too loose on my feet! What did you do? when is it safe to buy shoes? 10 pounds over goal, 20 pounds over goal? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sydney Susan 333 Posted May 5, 2013 My shoe size hasn't changed with my weight. Has yours gone down with all the weight you have lost so far? Congrats on that too. Perhaps you can estimate from your experience so far. 1 mariamitani reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms skinniness 3,003 Posted May 5, 2013 I would get some new shoes. your weight is different and it's extremely important to wear shoes that properly fit. Your feet have lost weight too so I would invest in 1 pair of shoes that fit you properly and then wait until you're near goal and get more shoes...CONGRATS on your weight loss! 4 TES, Momonanomo, Sherri297 and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
T'snewstart 251 Posted May 5, 2013 I had to buy new shoes.... I still have 65# to lose. I only bought one pair at a shoe outlet store as I anticipate buying a smaller size when I reach my goal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
