I'm only a few weeks out and my feet haven't changed but the boobs are feeling less "full".  Not pancakes but I'm noticing a change (well actually my BF noticed the change...he said they felt lighter).  My cup size hasn't changed yet....still a 44DD...but I've been this size since I was in college and weighted 100 pounds lighter so they might not change too much.  I'm praying to the boob god that they don't!

My feet....I've been the same size since I was 14....a size 11.  I'm not sure if they will change since my feet are not wide and are actually quite narrow.  If somehow my feet do manage to get smaller...someone better take my credit cards because I'm gonna do some serious damage when I go shopping!

YIPPEEEE! I have a surgery buddy!! 

When is your pre-op scheduled? I'm scheduled to go in 10-11 from 8am to 3pm to do most of my stuff, then I go each Tuesday after that for a class from 3-5pm. I'm also supposed to go on a liquid diet beginning 2 weeks before surgery. I'm SO EXCITED, but sometimes I get just a little nagging fear.

How are you doing?

It really depends on your body.  Some people who are obese have fat feet and some do not.    You are more likely to find that the shoe width will change more than the length (even if you don't wear "wide" shoes... but depending on the design of the shoes, it may mean being able to wear a smaller size.

As far as your chest, it will certainly shrink, but how much depends on how big your chest is from a heredity standpoint.  I lost a huge amount from my chest, but am still very large busted (36DDD... and they literally hang to my waist now)... but I was big before I started gaining weight (C-cup in Juniuor High School). Unfortunately, the only way to get perky breasts after losing weight is plastic surgery.
