NSV - my feet

When I weighed 240, the bottoms of my feet were a huge callus.  I was very active even when I was large.  I had the feet of an elephant.  I had to shave my heels all the time to cut the dead skin off.  I used the Ped-Egg all the time.

Once I lost the weight, my feet stopped creating the calluses on my heel and toes.  I don’t have to cut the heels any more.  My feet don’t have that square look around the edges any more.  And the skin looks great from all the vitamins I take.

I can finally wear sandals and not be embarrassed by my heels.

Yay! I hope you live somewhere that is still warm. I've already cranked on the heat here in Michigan so my sandles are packed for the year.

I am scheduled for my DS in February. I am 5'7" and weigh 340 lbs. I have the same problem with the calluses on my feet. I hate it! That is another thing I'm looking forward after surgery!

Me too!!!  And now the calluses don't split and bleed either!

Woohooo!  I too have that problem - so good to hear this! Congrats :)

Ditto....  My feet are also much happier since my weightloss.  Those thick cracky heals can be so painful.  Sometimes I would shave so much off I swear that I was a little bit shorter....lol  small victories!

So the actual weight may have a bearing on the cracks etc. I have had them too but they are starting to look better as my weight drops. Interesting. 

At my heaviest, my heels did crack.  And I was always shaving/abrasion the heels, the outer edges of my feet, the bottom of my toes, etc.

It never occurred to me until I noticed that I have not had to use the ped-egg for 6 months and the callus on my heels seems to be shrinking on it's own.  The callus isn't building up any more.
