Please tell me if your nose gets smaller after weight loss surgery?

[NewLife'sGr8 241]

2 things I know for sure:

- Our noses grow as we age

- Feet get wider the more we wall barefoot

That said, my own personal nose can't afford to get any bigger! It's always been big & bulbous. Now, it takes up 1/3 of my face (as I see it-though we don't always see ourselves the way others do). To me, it looks bigger because I'm far less 'cheeky' than I used to be so the overall face-width doesn't offset the wide bulbous nose. I wish there was a nose-band to get rid of it like the Realize band got rid of the other wide-spots around my bod.

My feet stayed the same size but the Mary Jane & stripy shoes no longer have foot-goo pushing up over the edges resulting in less indented red marks on my feet at the end of the day. Thankfully, I didn't have to buy wide but I was more comfy in wider shoes/boots like Uggs.

Another NSV was when I could see the defined tendons on the tops of my feet, and my ankle bones are well defined- & not just a skin-bump there anymore

Fingers & toes are slimmer & appear longer. I can see the tendons are defined and also there's a bone at the base of my hands, at the bottoms of my thumbs, that sticks out & my wrist bone pops way out too.

I've been shifting rings to bigger fingers - and they still spin around. When they start falling of my thumbs, I'll resize them. ha

* auto-correct sux sometimes...

I meant to type:

...the more we WALK...

and

...STRAPPY shoes....

I like all the refined features that will be coming up but not the nose fact. I just hope for the finer features! We shall see how my nose turn out after the weight loss. I like the how our feet will shrink a bit. Some people go down a size or two. I have some shoes that were snuggier as well and thrilled I will wear them post op. There is so much to look forward to!! Thank you for your insights as well for everyone who participated with their thoughts.

So I was talking to this guy online many, many moons ago and we exchanged pics for the first time.

He sent me a message that said, "You know, if you lost some weight your nose wouldn't look so lumpy."

I replied, "You know, if you said that to my face yours would be on backwards right now"

Anywho, you have a lovely nose and I'm sure it will look perfect on your face when you're done :)
