I seem to have gained a whole size in shoes as i got older and bigger. I don't know if its the age or the swelling from walking so much.

Mine seem to have gotten smaller, but not by a lot0
-
I gained two shoe sizes while pregnant, I have noticed my shoes have gotten roomy lately. Idk how much smaller they have gotten though as I haven't tried on any smaller shoes.0

No but my boobs did lol
If you had fat on your feet (swollen even) due to being overweight your feet could be loosing inches0 -
They can. Just like the rest of you.0

Funny just recently I found out the hard way that my feet were a lot smaller. I bought a whole new outfit to go to my Uncle's memorial, but not shoes. I grabbed the outfit, shoes out of my closet and off we headed. Once we had lunch my family decided to change at the restaurant as it had big clean bathrooms. I put on my whole outfit slipped into the shoes I haven't worn since last year and my God I felt like I was slipping into my mother's shoes as a little girl. I started to walk around and clip clop clip clop I went. I told DH and he said we could stop and buy me shoes, but at that time I didn't feel we had time. So, I stuffed some TP in the toes and did the best I could to stay in them.0

Dunno, but I can see them now.0

Hell yes. Fat can and usually will be deposited all over the body. As you lose weight, your feet can get smaller. I went down a half size after 50 or so lbs.0

I was wondering that myself, I have wide feet and I swear my shoes feel looser. I'm hoping that I have lost enough so I'm not wide width any more. Defiantly will try some shoes next time I'm out0
-
I notice that the width definitely changes. I think it is because your feet spread out more when they are holding up more weight. When I lost a bunch of weight, I noticed that my feet felt different (smaller) in shoes and boots I'd worn for years. When I gained weight again, some shoes I wore while thin were way too tight. Could be extra tissue or swelling, or simply that the width spreads out wider with more weight.0

NOBODY believes me when I tell them that with my weight loss of 45lbs I lost 2 shoe sizes. They always say "it's the shoe" or "your shoes were too big".
I was an 39 before, now I am 37 (German size) I think it's 8 and 6 in the US0 -
After 3 months of exercise (cardio) I started noticing my feet would go numb while i was working out! Didnt dawn on me till later..
My shoes were too loose!!
Got to buy a new pair of running shoes though. WIN WIN!0 -
Yep, went down about 1/2 of a size0
-
I've grown by an inch.
bit on my feet too.
ha. ha.0 -
Waaah! What's wrong with me? My feet got bigger! :sad:0
-
Dunno, but I can see them now.
I noticed that with less bodyfat, I retain less water. So they don't have the tendency to swell.0 -
yup, gone from a 81/2 to 71/2 or 7 in some styles. So sad, had to buy all new shoes, lol, wonderful nsv for me.0
-
Yes! I was a women's 7.5-8, and now I'm usually a 7 (occasionally a 7.5). And that's only with losing 25 lbs...0
-
Yes I dropped from a size 12 to a 10.5...really didn't notice it till I was out for a walk and had to go down a hill and slid inside my shoe. Surprised the heck out of me.0
-
Definitely. I've lost some fat around my ankles, and I don't have the swelling in my ankles and feet anymore. An 8.5WW used to be tight on me. Now I can wear an 8W, and I can wear my ankle boots that zip up. Last spring, I couldn't even get them halfway up my foot.0
-
I went up a shoe size when I gained all this weight and now I'm down about half a size since my journey began. I hope I get back to a size 8, because I have some cute shoes begging to be worn again .0
