New SHOES!!!!



Recommended Posts

I wear a size 7 now but have to wear grannie shoes for comfort. I am hoping with decreased wt, I'll be apply to wear heals (not too high) a really attractive shoe. I also can't do up boots that are higher then my ankles. I am hoping wt loss will change that as well. Has anyone had success with that?

You know I wondered about this, too. I was always a 6.5 medium and over the years, it went up to a seven (sometimes needing a wide). I wondered if it was weight or age. so I guess I'll find out which later. It doesn't really matter to me which I end up at, but I'd hate to be in the "middle" of two sizes. Because then Slip on style shoes, as opposed to lace up sneakers etc. would either flop off as you walk or be tight.

Yeah, I know the size is already small and I guess I should be happy about that, but I'm short so smalll feet on me makes sense, right/

Another place for shoes online is footsmart.com - I got some really cute 10WW on there . . . and Friday night when we were going for family pictures I put one pair on . . . and I had to change - I couldn't keep them on my feet! Oh YEA if I can come down a size . . . that would be GREAT!

I have to share that I finally can zip my boots all the way up. I have only been able to zip them to my calves for so long it was normal to me. I forgot that they really should be able to zip to the top. It feels great!

I would say my feet is where I've lost alot of the weight already, I'm down 30 pounds and I was wearing a 10. Now some 9's are big, and tried on my mother's 8's and I could fit them (a little snug) but they went on. I would say definitely on the shoe size! My boyfriend got me pink reebok running shoes last year for Christmas that were 10's, and this year I got even nicer ones in a 9!! Yay :)

I wear an 11 and its so hard to find cute shoes that fit properly. I have 3 kids and with each pregnancy I grew 1/2 size started at 9.5 now up to 11 BLAH

Its bad enough not being able to enjoy shopping for clothes in "regular" sizes, but also not being able to find shoes when out with friends really sucks!

I am to be banded on 1-16-08 so I will be in the "regular sizes" in clothes soon and hopefully shoes too!!!! A size 10 would be fine! :rolleyes:

I have been complaining lately that all my shoes are too big.

It's nice to lose weight but I am not enjoying the fact that everything I own is too big. I don't even know what size underwear

to buy. I don't think you're supposed to try those on. I need a new coat, a new nightgown, new shoes, and Santa did not come through!

I have had the trouble of things not fitting as well, but isn't it so much nicer having clothes too big VS clothes that are too tight and having to go up another size? Some of my friends make fun of me because my shirts are starting to look like tents on me. I love it!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
