Curious if your feet change after weight loss

[DanaKat 39]

Obviously your body is going to change but do your feet get smaller too? Just curious because mine were always a size 7 until I started gaining weight then went to an 8 1/2. I know I'll need new clothes but didn't know about shoes in the months after my surgery.

They definitely do....I now have skinnier, and healthier feet!!!

You bet they do. I didn't think about it until I went from an 8 1/2 wide to a 7 or 7 1/2 regular width. Another plus is that I have ingrown toenails and they used to bother me all the time. These days, I don't have to see the podiatrist for several months at a time.

Started with a 12w and now 12m. Size 12 is expensive and hard to find. In May at Easy Spirit outlet I bought 3 pairs of sandals for around $80. That is a NSV for big feet!

I used to be a 7.5 med, then I gained weight after having my son, and gradually went up to a 9.5 med. Now after the weight loss I ve gone down to a size 9 med and sometimes an 8.5 med. I gave away several pairs of cute shoes , but oh well ! That just meant a justified reason to shop ! Have fun !

Yes they certainly do. I went from a size 6 1/2 to a seven both wide withs. Now I'm back in my 6 1/2 medium. I still have to get a wide with in tennis shoes though.

I love shopping and I will for sure use weight loss as a good excuse to revamp my shoe closet!

I lost a full shoe size,so they definitely change

I didn't give this any thought until I broke out the size 8.5 sandals this summer and walked right out of them:) I went from an 8.5 to a 7-6.5 depending on the type of shoe. Whoda thunk;)

I dropped about half a size and not as wide as before. Also my feet don't swell nearly as much as they used to before weight loss. And today I noticed that when I flex my foot I can see a BONE down the front of my leg from knee to ankle. I was so excited I almost took a picture. Matter of fact I may do that. ;P
