When I gained my weight, my shoe size went up. Do they go back down?

I am 5 weeks out and 40 lbs down. I haven't lost a shoe size yet (thank goodness), but I have lost the "fat girl lean" haha. My shoes look and fit so much better. I am hoping I don't lose any shoe sizes. I love my shoes!!

Yes, my shoe size went down about a size. I was in 10W that was always a little too snug, but 11s were too big, to now a 9 that fits well. I can sometimes wear and 8.5 depending on how it's made. LOL at the fat girl lean - that's gone, too!

I still wear all the same shoes 8-8.5 W and I've lost over 100 lbs. I guess the everyone is different adage applies.

I have lost right at 100 pounds and my shoe size stayed the same. Size 8 regular.

I went from always wearing a wide 11.5 - did not matter which brand - to a regular 10 in popular brands like Nike (which I believe run a little small). It felt good to walk into a running store mid month 5 and buy a normal size 10 running shoe and have it fit perfectly. First time that had ever happened to me, ever.

My shoe width went from wide to medium but the length hasn't changed. Had to buy some new belts size XL and toss all my 3Xs! Yayeeee!

      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.
