Does your shoe size change?

I asked this question a few weeks ago and got a really varied response, but it gave this size 14 foot gal some real hope! And I was actually able to buy sandals a full size smaller on Monday! Never would have tried them on before, but the salesperson was sure they'd fit...and they did! Now a truly fitted shoe maybe not...but sandals were a yes! YEAH!

Please consult your surgeon & nutritionist for how to do it their way.  Biggest regret? Not doing this 10 years ago! Every day is better than the day before...and it was a pretty great day!

In short, EVERYTHING changes!  Shoes are only a part of it.  You lose fat (obviously) but then your feet were probably a little swollen when you were heavier and that swelling will go away as you slim down as well.

Congratulations! You are on your way.

I haven't. Ive lost 118 total so far and i still have giant feet, size 11 @ 5'5". But my feet were always long and bony so I anticipate having WNBA feet for life.

Nope. I did not go down in size at all. I was a 10 pre-RNY and a 10 now. I guess I did not carry any of my excess weight in my feet. kiss

I don't need a wide anymore, but I'm still a 9, no matter how many 8.5s I try.

Not a major change.  I wish they would go down a couple sizes.
