do you need to buy new shoes ?

I was wondering if any of you out there that have lost alot of weight, have had to buy new/smaller size shoes?

I have only lost 41 lbs(+10 prior to surgery-so 51 total) but I think that my Fat Flinstone feet are shrinking!!

How 'bout you??

When I lost 50+ pounds before...my "wide" feet were no longer "wide", but the length didn't change :)

Anyway....just think...this opens up a whole new dimension of shoes for you to explore!!! fun fun fun!!!!

it just seems funny, I guess that losing a shoe size never crossed my mind, when I thought about losing weight, or being "skinny/thinner"...

I have been buying new shoes! I started out between a 8 1/2 and 9, depending on the brand and type of shoe. And they were always wide width. This weekend I bought size 8's MEDIUM! I was ecstatic! I figured the width would go down but hadn't given any thought to the length. I'm always looking for an excuse to shop...what a nice one!
