Are you feet shrinking?

arjames82

Has anyone else noticed that their feet have gotten smaller since losing weight? Over the past few months, I've noticed my shoes flopping around on my feet a bit, but I didn't pay it any mind. I finally went and had my feet measured at a shoe store, and the man told me that I wear a size 7. I'm thinking, no way:noway: I have worn a size 8 shoe for as long as I can remember. But sure enough, I put on a dang size 7 shoe and it fits like a charm. Now, not only do I need new clothes, but I need new shoes. I could understand my feet getting narrower, but shorter...that's just the weirdest thing ever!:huh:

I have noticed that you can see the bones in my feet better. However, I really don't want my feet to shrink, I already only wear a 5.5!

Well that's something to look forward to then.
I wear an 11, it's terrible.

HAHA, I agree! I also have size 11...it's awful. It is so hard to find a pair of cute shoes in our size! :grumble:

Yep - I have gone from a 9W to a 8 1/2 or 8 R, I even have one pair I bought in a 7.5R - cracks me up I never thought about the fact that my feet were over weight as well :noway:

I use to be a 7.
Gained weight, had a baby. Neared an 8 or 8.5.
Lost weight. Back to 7.5 but they are becoming lose on me.
Not really logical, but it's happening. LOL

Has happened to me as well in the past.. The more weight your feet have to support, the wider they spread

Well I'm glad to see it's not just me. I thought I was some kind of alien!
