Shoe size changed?

[ebonidarden 1]

Has your shoe size gotten smaller since your surgery?

Absolutely, mine did! I used to be a 9 double wide. Now I take an 8 narrow.

Yes I went from 10.5/11 wide to 9.5 reg, during my first weight loss. I think once I have the sleeve surgery and get down to my goal, whatever that might be (for me it s feeling not a number) I think my shoe size will be about a 9. That's a big change and of course shoes in that size start to get cuter! Fun non scale victories!

Funny... I can't wear ANY of my shoes anymore and am just buying cheap ones for now because I still have about 58 lbs to go.

amazing our feet get fat too. Plus swelling goes down.

I'm down a size and regular instead of wide... I even bought a kids pair last week! its a great feeling - and to think that I thought that shoes were the only thing I could buy before that were 'normal' and now I'm even growing out of all the ones I had, in the right direction

My husband thinks I just want new shoes... But no, I really can't fit them! Lol

Yep! 8 weeks out tomorrow. I went from 10 wide to just a plain 9.

8 to a size 7...from wide to regular...12 weeks out...

From a 10.5 to a 9. It's crazy, I was NOT expecting it and actually found myself having to grieve for shoes! Lol

Ridiculous, I know, but when I was big shoes became sort of my fashion indulgence. I may have had limited plus size clothing options, but I could always get beautiful shoes. It was very hard saying goodbye to some of them! Not that I would have it any other way of course!

Sometimes when I am at yoga and in a forward fold I find myself staring at my feet and thinking " OMG I actually have skinny feet" they fascinate me. I never, ever realised I had fat feet!

I'm down 110 lbs. and went from a 8.5-9 to a 7.5. never thought that my feet were fat, but apparently I was wrong.

This is such an interesting thread! I'm actually having problems with my feet and have been in AFOs since before my sleeve. When my podiatrist last measured my feet, they were a 12EE (double wide), but when I was cast for therapeutic shoes last week, one foot was a 10.5 standard, and the other was an 11 wide. Not quite six weeks out, and I'm already experiencing foot changes. Wonder what my feet will be like in 80 pounds or so!

My feet are still big although I went from a 12 WW to a regular 12. I am praying for an 11 I still have a lot more weight to lose.

I went from 7.5 to 7.
