Shoe size changed?



Recommended Posts

Absolutely, mine did! I used to be a 9 double wide. Now I take an 8 narrow.

Yes I went from 10.5/11 wide to 9.5 reg, during my first weight loss. I think once I have the sleeve surgery and get down to my goal, whatever that might be (for me it s feeling not a number) I think my shoe size will be about a 9. That's a big change and of course shoes in that size start to get cuter! Fun non scale victories!

Funny... I can't wear ANY of my shoes anymore and am just buying cheap ones for now because I still have about 58 lbs to go.

I'm down a size and regular instead of wide... I even bought a kids pair last week! its a great feeling - and to think that I thought that shoes were the only thing I could buy before that were 'normal' and now I'm even growing out of all the ones I had, in the right direction :)

From a 10.5 to a 9. It's crazy, I was NOT expecting it and actually found myself having to grieve for shoes! Lol

Ridiculous, I know, but when I was big shoes became sort of my fashion indulgence. I may have had limited plus size clothing options, but I could always get beautiful shoes. It was very hard saying goodbye to some of them! Not that I would have it any other way of course!

Sometimes when I am at yoga and in a forward fold I find myself staring at my feet and thinking " OMG I actually have skinny feet" they fascinate me. I never, ever realised I had fat feet!

This is such an interesting thread! I'm actually having problems with my feet and have been in AFOs since before my sleeve. When my podiatrist last measured my feet, they were a 12EE (double wide), but when I was cast for therapeutic shoes last week, one foot was a 10.5 standard, and the other was an 11 wide. Not quite six weeks out, and I'm already experiencing foot changes. Wonder what my feet will be like in 80 pounds or so!

My feet are still big although I went from a 12 WW to a regular 12. I am praying for an 11 I still have a lot more weight to lose.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
