Well, I'm more than a year out, but when I was a year out, I went from wide to "normal", but the same size.

All of my shoes are a little looser. I am not sure if my size will change or not, but I can definitely tell my feet are smaller and I am only halfway done losing weight.

Yep, my shoe size is smaller by 1/2 size. My feet are now ripped like a bodybuilder! :-) If my feet had abs, my six-pack would be showing.

I'm just over 2 weeks & I have toe gap now! There's light between those toes now. So, yes I'd say they smaller.

allons-y

Yes! Less weight means less pressure on your feet and less to spread out. I had to get rid of kore than half of my shoes- especially winter ones- because they began falling off of my feet!

Funny ... I just asked a friend of mine who's lost a lot of weight the same question. He lost about 1/2 size as I have ... I noticed my slip on dress shoes were coming off and I was walking a bit "off" ... I just bought new shoes this past weekend, 1/2 size smaller and they are perfect ... I didn't notice it on the sneakers, since you use laces, but the slip on dress shoes made it obvious!!

The only shoes I have that fit me now are ones that were too tight or narrow before! What I want to know is, when does shoe size settle down? Because I really don't want to be buying shoes in many different sizes.

Can any one share based on their experience?

I bought new knee high boots yesterday, 9 weeks out. I went from an 11 to a 9, in a brand that runs small. Totally freaked me out!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
