Physics of Shrinky-dink Feets
You're describing my toes! Mine are extremely long...and to add insult to injury,the second toe is the longest!
Im only 4 weeks post op and already all my sandals are too wide, which amazed me. I must have been carrying around some serious water weight!
VSG DATE 6/6/16 | SW 280 | CW 198 | GW 175 | HEIGHT 5'8 | AGE 55
ORIGINAL GOAL WEIGHT OF 175 MET: 12/6/17 (18 MONTHS POST OP)
NEW GOAL: LOSE 20 LB RE-GAIN
I wish for this! But alas I have only lost width. And I wore a 12 wide now I can wear a 12 medium, it was almost impossible to find shoes now it's just massively hard. i would seriously enjoy my feet shrinking to a size 10 so I could buy shoes in a store!
are your feet getting small enough you can't find shoes small enough? I can't imagine. Lol it's amazing how different we all are!
Vsg April 25th 2016 with Benjamin Shadle.
Starting weight 351, surgery weight 331
M1 -22.2 M2 - 14.2 M3 -8.9 M4 - 12.1 M5 - 4.7
8/22/2016 Lost 60.1 since surgery. Lost 78.2 overall.
Goals: 1)Get under 300 - done! Yeah! 2) Get under 280 (Yeah met this on 8/10/16) 3)Get under 268 (stay tuned!)
My first sizing at the shoe store was apparently done by someone whose attention is about as good as mine.. The size now is 6 1/2 med, but still, that's a whole size different! It might yet happen, but who can predict this stuff? My boidy is losing in lopsided fashion, and it's even more disturbing!
Size 6 1/2 med is much easier to find than 7 1/2 WW, for sure. It's been impossible to find that size anywhere iin person and when I bought them online, there was a high rate of return shipping and / or exchange.
Exciting and random aside: bought a dress for California trip and didn't have to pay the YourHugeClothesTakeMoreMaterialToWork tax(ordered a 1x! Price goes up in tens starting 2x.
Hope you're well!
