As I gained large amounts of weight my shoe size went from a 9 to an 11. I am only 2 weeks into this lapband journey but I am wondering if your shoe size changed after you lost a lot of weight.

Yes. I wore 11W before. Now I don't need the wide anymore and can wear some 10's.

I was wearing a 8 1/2W or 9 - and now I can fit in a regular 8 1/2 and in some cases an 8

I stayed the same size, but my foot is deffinately more narrow. Some of my shoes got too loose.

Definitely. I went from having to buy 13W to a regular old 12. You lose fat from places you didn't realize you had it.

My hat size went down as well.

I went from a 9-9 1/2 to a 8 1/2. So for me it did! Which sucks because I have a closet full of heels that flip flop now

I went from a 10 wide and some 11's to a regular 10. My feel LOOK smaller and thinner:)

I, also, had a big change in shoe size. I went from 8 1/2 or 9 w to 7 1/2 m. There were no 2 ways around it, I had to donate all my shoes and buy new ones. I, now, only own 1 pair flats, 2 dress sandals and 1 pair sneakers, 2 pair flip flops. I used to have at least 25 pairs in my closet. I have a friend who was banded 2 weeks ago that I advised that she would probably have to get rid of her shes, too! Karen

Yes went from a size 8 to 6.5 or 7

Thanks for all the responses - I will wait awhile to purchase new shoes in anticipation of a reduction in size!

Oh, the small victories of weight loss, sexy shoes. 10W to 9 regular.

I feel like mine have shrunk a tad, I wear an 11, I'm finding some are too big now. I feel like I probably wear a 10.5 which doesn't exist haha

yes - Size 8 down to 7. Sandals I wore last spring no longer fit correctly - there is so much room.

My shoe size changed from sizes 8 to 8.5 to size 7. One can only imagine how many shoes are wasted and that`s what makes me miserable but I guess it`s a blessing!

I expected that I would have to buy new clothes but I was surprised that I am having to purchase new shoes too. I am 6 months out and have had to hand down several pairs of adorable shoes to my mother because I can't keep them on any more.

Shoe size was one of the first things I noticed. I went from a 10W, some 11's to 9.5 or 10 regular width.
