It it just me...

Or do your dag gone feet shrink.. I mean I have been wearing a 11 most of my life because I'm a tall girl of 5'7  plus big and all..so I know what to expect.. but my size 11 shoes had to much space to the fact that I almost feel my tall behind down 40 steps from my office at work..  I went to the shoe store... I can perfectly fit a size 10 in shoes.. I thinking maybe I always fit a size 10.. may dag gone feet wear just fat as HELL.. LOL.. anyone Else have the same scenario.. CRAZINESS..

Yep.  I bought an 8 1/2 Wide before surgery.  They're falling off my feet.  I ordered a pair of diabetic shoes size 8 Wide too and when they came in they were too wide and I had to reorder.  So my feet are a half size smaller and not quite so fat!

You'll never leave where you are until you decide where you'd rather be.

I believe our feet shrink faster than our bodies.

Yes, I wear clog like shoes and I am almost literally tripping over my feet.  Need some new kicks!

I haven't gone down a size but my feet are definitely narrower than they use to be.

I am happy to say i have the same problem and another one to boot. i haven't been able to wear my wedding ring in about 4 years and now I am almost 3 months out and I proudly wear my wedding ring at all times. Gotta love shrinking feet and hands.
