when i gained weight my feet got bigger. do feet get "skinnier" or smaller after you lose the weight? i heard after pregnancy people don't tend to lose the increased foot size when they return to normal weight. I was just wondering though if other people had experience with this and comments on it.

Mine have shrunk a whole size, so yes. In fact my shoes from before I lost weight are way too big and stretched out, I can't even wear them anymore.

Lol yup I wore a size 9.5 before surgery I wear a 7 now

I went from a size 10 to a size 9. I had to buy new shoes.

Yep....I went to put on some high heals the other day and sure enough the didn't fit. I never even thought about my feet getting smaller. Oh well...I will just add that to the shopping list. Looks like I went from a size 9.5 to an 8.5

i had huge feet with the extra weight. they were very painful as well. it was fluid, the dr tried to change my b/p meds with a diuretic added and it made me ill. so, i had to put up with my feet, which were really gross as well as being painful. i had lapband surgery and within a week the feet were back to their normal size, and looking better than they had for nearly 20 years. the pain has nearly gone as well. i hope this helps you. i dont know how much swelling in feet is due to fluid with everyone else but it was fluid with me.
