Torriluv87 300 Posted January 14, 2017 Im so ready for this. I have wide feet and they hate shoes. It's like a kid spitting out veggies. Not much really agrees with my feet. So I'm hoping to lose some weight in them and go down a size or something or to atleast not be wide width anymore Sent from my SM-G925T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ready_to_be_thin 179 Posted January 18, 2017 I definitely think this is true, for me at least! Luckily, where I work, we can wear jeans and sandals, things like that as we typically don't have anyone in the office. Last week, we had to dress business casual because of someone coming in. I haven't had to wear dress shoes in about a year or so. I tried to put a pair of flats on, and when I walked, they flipped up and down off of my heels. So there was no way I could wear them. I never thought I had lost weight in my feet, but I guess I did. I'll take weight loss anywhere I can get it. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UalreadyKnow 843 Posted January 18, 2017 I lost a size and a half!! From a 9 to a 7.5 and in some shoes a 7. This was the hardest thing for me. I LOVED my heels! As a big girl, I never had to hold back buying cute shoes, cute clothes, was a different battle. Now I have to start my heel collection all over again!! Oh well, I'll take a size 10 clothes over a 30/32 anyday!! Love my sleeve Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
