    I thought I was just weird. Haha. Glad to know I'm not alone!

    My feet are certainly slimmer and much less inclined to puffiness at the instep. Even my husband has noticed.

    ETA My shoe size is still the same just the width has changed.

    I was a 9 before I gained. At my high weight I wore an 11. I'm in a 10 now.

    I haven't lost much weight, but my feet are smaller. It was the first place I really noticed weight loss, too, which was really frustrating. I walked out of my favorite pair of shoes.

    "Really, Weight Loss Fairy? You're making my FEET smaller?! Gee... thanks."

    I have a pair of dress shoes that were always tight on me and now they fit comfortably. A friend at work who has also dropped weight has said he noticed the same thing.

    Yes, when I gained weight my feet got bigger. Now that I am slimmer, my shoe size is down a whole size. Had to buy all new shoes. I am a shoe *kitten* so I didn't mind the shoe shopping! lol

    I went from 238.8lbs to 147.3 & my shoe sizes went from 11/11.5 to about 9.5. I've always had wider feet (still do) but my feet are definitely thinner. Who knew how much fat could accumulate around your feet? ;)

    OH I hope so!

    I'm a size 9 or 10 ... I would love to be a size 8 or so.

    I never thought I had fat feet or anything but I used to be a size 9.5 and now, 80lbs lighter, I'm a size 8. I'm 5'7" if that makes any difference. I know my fingers got smaller as well but I don't know what size I used to be, but my ring finger is a size 4.5 now.

    I did lose a shoe size, but I should probably point out that I had high arches. With my first pregnancy I went from a 9 to a 10, and with the second pregnancy, I went from a 10 to 11w. Now I'm back to a 10 and I weigh about the same as I did with the 2nd pregnancy. Honestly, I think it depends entirely on the arch. If you are flat-footed, you probably won't see much of a change other than maybe less swelling.

    I have annoyingly high arches (hard time finding shoes...), maybe that's why I lost that much.

    I went down a shoe size as well, which was stunning to me. I had no idea feet could hold so much fat...

    Strange things have shrunk like my feet (I am swimmin' in my cowboy boots), the bridge of my nose (need new sunglasses), my hands (my wedding band is all over the place), once size fits all doesn't fit all of me anymore :)

    Funny, I was just talking about this with my Aunt yesterday! She's lost some weight this year and noticed that she can now wear some sneakers she bought a few years ago that were too snug. They're still a bit narrow in the toes but much more comfortable than they were before.

    My feet have definitely changed. I actually needed to go up a half to full size in sneakers so that my toes woudln't rub, especially when running. For regular shoes, I'm about the same size lengthwise but narrower - so much so that I could no longer wear some of last year's sandals (the kind where the strap goes across just at the base of your toes) because they'll fall right off my feet.
