When I gained my weight, my shoe size went up. Do they go back down?

I am 5 weeks out and 40 lbs down. I haven't lost a shoe size yet (thank goodness), but I have lost the "fat girl lean" haha. My shoes look and fit so much better. I am hoping I don't lose any shoe sizes. I love my shoes!!

Yes, my shoe size went down about a size. I was in 10W that was always a little too snug, but 11s were too big, to now a 9 that fits well. I can sometimes wear and 8.5 depending on how it's made. LOL at the fat girl lean - that's gone, too!

I still wear all the same shoes 8-8.5 W and I've lost over 100 lbs. I guess the everyone is different adage applies.

I have lost right at 100 pounds and my shoe size stayed the same. Size 8 regular.

I went from always wearing a wide 11.5 - did not matter which brand - to a regular 10 in popular brands like Nike (which I believe run a little small). It felt good to walk into a running store mid month 5 and buy a normal size 10 running shoe and have it fit perfectly. First time that had ever happened to me, ever.

My shoe width went from wide to medium but the length hasn't changed. Had to buy some new belts size XL and toss all my 3Xs! Yayeeee!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
