I have wide feet and measure at size 9 womens . Being over weight I usually buy size 11 shoes so they fit. I'm 80 pounds down and have about 55 to get to goal 153 lbs. I'm 5'7''. I'm worried about buying shoes then dropping therest of the weight and then my shoes get too loose on my feet! What did you do? when is it safe to buy shoes? 10 pounds over goal, 20 pounds over goal?

Time for Payless. They'll be worn out in 6months, just in time for a good pair.

My shoe size hasn't changed with my weight. Has yours gone down with all the weight you have lost so far? Congrats on that too. Perhaps you can estimate from your experience so far.

I would get some new shoes. your weight is different and it's extremely important to wear shoes that properly fit. Your feet have lost weight too so I would invest in 1 pair of shoes that fit you properly and then wait until you're near goal and get more shoes...CONGRATS on your weight loss! :)

I had to buy new shoes.... I still have 65# to lose. I only bought one pair at a shoe outlet store as I anticipate buying a smaller size when I reach my goal.

Do it! I'm a huge believer in dressing for the size you are not the size you hope to be.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
