I'm curious. For those that have lost a bit of weight, did your feet shrink in shoe size? I. Wondering because mine got bigger through pregnancy, I'm wondering if they will go down with weight loss. I don't want to get shoes for the fall only to discover my feet are too small for the shoes/boots. :)

I only became a "wide" when I gained lots of weight. I'm back to regular even though I'm still quite overweight. Also I think I even went down a half size- back to my younger years- 8 1/2 wide to 8.

My surgery was July 16th & i hv lost weight in my feet. My shoes are loose! I had a pair of shoes tht were tight & hurt to wear but now I can wear them fine w no pain. So Yes your feet can loose weight.

I've lost weight (and gained it back) and the length didn't change but the width got smaller.

I'm only 11 days out and I've already noticed my feet look less "swollen". I cannot wait to be able to wear boots that go over my calves. I know I have a long way to go but just the thought that it could happen is amazing!

I haven't been able to wear knee high boots since I was in high school. Wouldn't that be fabulous!

I am really interested to see if my feet change after surgery. I like my feet now though, lol. I have 7 to 7 1/2 slightly wide feet.

Yes, your feet definitely change. I noticed my feet slimming down first, before anything else. I notice that my expensive Tevas are getting to the point of the strap running out of Velcro to attach it behind the heel. These are my favorites and cost almost 100 dollars. I wear them everywhere.and they are pretty comfy, even on long walks like 4 miles. Sigh, I will have to go buy a new smaller pair.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
