Dropping a shoe size?



Recommended Posts

When I was pregnat and gain alot of weight, both times I changed a half a shoe size. It would make sence that your feet , without so much pressure on them would "adjust" back. Remember our feet have a bunch of small bones.

Yes, even our feet get fat. :smile:

A little off topic, but even our EYES get fat.

Two weeks after I had the band, I took my daughter in for her annual eye exam. I casually mentioned needing to schedule myself an appointment, and asked if I should wait a few months or so because I had just had the LapBand a few weeks prior.

He confirmed what I had heard through the grapevine that sometimes our sight will change after losing/or gaining weight. He said that fat accumulates behind our eyeballs, causing vision changes.

So, I am going to wait a few more months before scheduling a new appointment.

It makes sense to me, as I never needed glasses as a child or teen... but suddenly needed them when I got pregnant with my first child.

Too funny! I went from a size 8 shoe to now a size 9. I am looking forward to going back to size 8. (It's funny because I have as many shoe sizes as dress sizes!)

Wow, didn't know about the eye thing! I hope my eyes improve a little!!

As far a cute shoes in big sizes, you all hit the nail on the head: Zappos.com!!! Actually, I don't order from the website because I work about 10 miles from the distribution center and their fab-o outlet store!

I'm doing the yard sale gig here in a couple of months and selling my giganto-shoes and then let the shopping commence!! :D
