I swear sometimes I feel like i should wear a shoe box. After I had my two kids my feet went up one size- I'm just hoping it's due to weight and not some seriously big feet lol

    Yes! Mine have shrunk a size and gotten narrower. Which is a good thing overall, except that my favourite hiking boots are now too big!!

    Some of my shoes are noticeably bigger on me now. :sad:

    In fact, it was one of the first places I noticed shrinkage. I walk right out of my favorite purple velvet kitten heels, and had to punch new holes in the straps of some of my cute strappy sandals.

    My feet grew each pregnancy about a half size. As I lose weight my shoes do fit differently though. So I wouldn't say that they got smaller but they did change shape.

    I'm not a woman, but in the interests of sexual equality ( :wink: ) I've lost a shoe-size.

    Yes, I've dropped about a size and a half, and my feet are now a bit narrower too.

    Yup! You can get those shoe inserts (the floppy ones) and they help until you get to where you need new shoes. My old size 8.5W tennis shoes I was sliding all over in no matter how tight I tied them. Finally got some 8 M's the other day.

    YES. I'm not exaggerating- size 8 to 6.
    NO LIE.
    And I'm not even close to my goal.

    I was 4 sizes away from my true shoe size when I started all this and my feet have already reduced almost 2 sizes. I'm also not anywhere close to my goal.

    PA21, I love your ticker pic!

    I was a size 6 before I got pregnant. By the time I delivered, my shoe size was an 8. My son is 21 months old and I have been losing weight. I am back to a size 6.

    I knew losing weight would give me an excuse to buy clothes, but no idea I'd get to shoe shop too!!! :o)
