Shoe Size Change

Has anyone had this happen? I used to have really wide feet (I guess we can just assume fat - even though I always remember it this way, not just when I was overweight). My size was always around 9 1/2 sometimes 10 to accommodate the width. Since losing a lot of weight my shoe size went down - I was buying 9's and doing relatively well. Although one pair did seem big, I thought nothing of it. Until last week... I put on some old running shoes (9 1/2 W) and they were enormous on me. I could hardly tie them tightly enough; so I went to the Sports Authority and bought 2 new pairs to replace 2 old pairs. One pair, a Nike running shoe fit nicely in a size 8 1/2, the other pair, a cross trainer by New Balance, is perfect in size 8. How in the world could my feet get this much smaller. They're feet?!? I'm really surprised and thought I would inquire if anyone else had such a dramatic change. Most of my old shoes are huge and I can't wear them any longer. I guess I'll have to donate. Emily

Hey Emily. I was stuffing my sausages into 10's even though an 11 or 12 fit more comfortably. Now, my feet fit VERY comfortably in a 10...sometimes too big. I really used to like wearing heels when I was SMO, but now I LOVE wearing my heels. My feet don't hurt like they used to, and my feet are skinny now, so they look really cute! April
