I was wondering if anyone has lost a shoe size with their weight loss. I would be very sad if this happened to me and I had to replace all my shoes (I have quite the collection). I was just saying to my boyfriend the other day that the only thing that still fits me are my socks and shoes. Everything else has been replaced a few times already as I get smaller.

About 18 years ago I lost over 100 lbs and I went from a size 10 shoe to an 8.5. Since I've been sleeved (6 weeks post op) all my clothes are big but I just bought a new pair of sneakers and they are the same size, however I do expect to be in a 9 once I've lost all my weight, that was my shoe size before I gained all my weight.

Yes, I have lost half to a full shoe size. I can wear insoles in most of my shoes and have them still fit, which is actually great as it makes them more comfortable. I only a have a few pair, plus my favorite black boots, that are just flat out too big.

My favorite sandals that I wore all the time before surgery are too big for me now. I know I've gone down at least a size.

I'm at 8 months out, and all of my shoes are too big and have had to be replaced.

I suppose it depends on if you have "fat feet" or not... I know some bigger girls with very skinny feet.

So far I have lost 1/2 of a size. From a 9 to 8 1/2.

I have also gone from a 9 to 8.5! I had to buy tennis shoes before a 5k I just participated in. Lol

I think my actual shoe size is the same but as my feet got fatter they stretched my shoes out most of which flip flop now;-)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
