A funny question some of you may think! But today I tried on some shoes with straps, only to find them extremely loose... I have lost around 20 pounds since I last wore these shoes...

Curious! xx

    I would assume yes. When I was pregnant (before I started retaining water:ohwell: ) I had to wear a 1/2 size larger than normal. Unfortunately, that change is not one I've thought about yet. I sure hope that at least SOME of my summer shoes will fit when time comes to wear them!

    I lost 50 lbs and one whole size in shoes. My feet are very happy at not having to work so hard. :happy:

    I went from wearing an 8.5-9 wide to a 7.5-8 regular.

    Oh yes!!! My shoes are slipping off of my feet...it's sort of getting annoying! Oh well, another excuse to shop! LOL

    I dropped ninety pounds a few years ago... and went from an 8.5 wide to a 7-7.5 regular...depends on the shoe.

    Sadly, that ninety still had me fifty pounds or so from goal...then I gained 15-20 of it back!!!:ohwell:

    Awesome! My feet are up to almost a 7 because of the amount of weight I've put on in the last 2 years or so; so maybe when I lose a good amount of weight, I'll go back down to my usual size 6? I've been a 6 since I was 12 years old and had to go up a whole size when I gained a lot of weight. I'll be happy to wear those old size 6 shoes that I just couldn't bear to part with. :smile:
