So my birthday was a few days after my surgery so I never got to really Celebrate or anything, so I decided to treat myself to a gift. I didn't want to buy clothes just because I know I won't be able to wear it long, so I decided on an awesome pair of shoes. Here they are. I love them.

Ha Ha...true. Mine have gone down about a half size. I put on my dress shoes one day & my heals kept slipping out! Yes, they are nice shoes! It's great that you treated yourself.

WOW , I never ever ever EVER considered my feet would shrink, never crossed my mind.... OOPS!, shoes are the one thing I STILL have been buying "because I will still be able to wear them after I loose weight".... SHHHHHHHHH, don't tell my husband this info.... on to earrings or are my ears going to shrivel up like dried prunes too?

I think the shoe issue is less of an issue for lower BMI folks than higher. My shoe size hasn't changed and I'm nearly at goal. But my calf size has so boots fit nicely now where as before I had to wear them under jeans and not leave them zipped up all the way LOL

I put on a pair of boots I picked up in Italy maybe gad 15 years ago (good gravy it's been that long) and they fit nifty keen just as they did when I was a size 2 so many years ago LOL

butterfly_gal

longgggggggg time ago when i was a little newbie (or should i say big!!!)....... :D

someone made a comment about their shoe sizes getting smaller

i thought, how silly, are you kidding me??????????

boy was i surprised when i realized its true!!!!!

you are a smart "cookie" :lol:

treating yourself to lovely boots, shoes instead of clothes you will grow out of!!!!!

now you can go and kick some a_ ssssss

("bad word police" are around and they don't like you to say certain words !!!)

watch out for "them" they are everywhere :lol:

in the past you might have rewarded yourself with some goodies (of course that would be pretty silly now!! ;)

hope your recovery is going nicely :)

take care

happy belated b'day :)

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
