Hello all

I was just wondering if any of you have smaller feet after losing a significant amount of weight?

I am just getting started, I am down 50 lbs from my heaviest weight and I can say that my shoes are definitely fitting better these days. Previously my shoes would be tight across the top of my foot, and cute little flats gave me muffin top of the foot. They are much cuter now :-D

I've lost 120 pounds and now weigh 118. My feet were 9w. Now they are a... 9. WTH? My daughter summed it up for me when she came over last time when she looked at my feet and said "Mom, you lost so much weight but you still have GIANT HOBBIT FEET!!!". Don't be jealous, girls, she'll ALL mine!! Lol

Thanks to her I can't help but think of my feet as Hobbit feet now... :-p

I was just noticing that this morning when I put on some lace up shoes. They used to be tight in a size 8, and now they are so big. I had to go from an 8w to a 7 regular.

Yes, I can sometimes fit in a 9.5. I used to always have to buy a 10.

I haven't lost as much as most, but I can say that slingback shoes without the buckle strap are annoying. The sling slides down my heal often, plus some of my other shoes are swimming on my foot. I have taken a pair to the shoe repair to have them adjusted. Love needing to do that, but don't like thinking about buying new shoes.

Yes for sure I have noticed that too. Strange I never thought I had fat feet before-but now they just look so much more slender!

Yes!!!! So bitter that I had to get rid if all my shoes!!! I love shoes! I wore anything from a 10 to an 11; now, I wear anything from a 9 to a 10. The tens I did have were too wide, so I had to chunk then too :( . But, I'll take it because it symbolizes that I'm not that big girl anymore!

Hello all I was just wondering if any of you have smaller feet after losing a significant amount of weight?

Started at 12w. Now 12 m. So no, my feet are still huge and I am not tall. Runs in my mothers family with the males and me. My brothers have 9's. Lucky them.

Good to hear.... I am hoping to go down a size. I am still pre-op though.

Wow, after reading all of the responses I wonder if this is a male/female thing.

I've lost 185 pounds so far and while me feet LOOK skinnier than they used to, I still wear the same 15 EEE that I have for the last 20+ years.

Minus 130 pounds, I'm still in size 11 shoes but no longer need extra wide, perhaps not even wide.

Have a pair of maryjane style with Velcro fastener. The strap is so long now across my ankle, it is bizarre.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
