I'm just looking forward to wearing heels again. I've heard when you loose the weight they are not so uncomfortable to walk on. At the moment I live in rubber slip ons and my feet ache a lot. Hope this all changes.

I wore heels when I was 350. My feet would hurt after a couple hours and most of the next day. Now i can wear heels all day. My feet hurt after maybe 8 or 9 hours and as soon as i take the shoes off the pain ends.

I have long feet, always have, runs in the family. Went from wides back to medium. Mught end up in a narrow, but I hope not, they are as big a pain as wides.

It's my understanding from reading other threads that your feet aren't necessarily fat, but there is less stress and strain on your arches, so they are able to recoil a little or bounce back from how flattened they were with the extra weight. This accounts for having 'shorter' feet after losing weight.

I was just sleeved 12/7. I was wearing 8W and already down to 7.5M. Feels good not to have to buy wides. It's hard to find anything I like it wides and most stores don't carry many.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
