getting taller??????? WTF?

have any of you heard of people actually getting TALLER after their WLS?????  i'm finding that I no longer can wear pants with a 30" inseam......I'm having to go up to a 32.  Any of you experience this?  Also...for those qondering about feet and shoe size........I went from a size 12 to a size 10!

 My friend told me today that she thought I was getting taller. I dunno why but I thought it was funny.  And my shoe size is definitely going down. I can't wear my flip flops or comfortable slippers anymore. :( 

dang Jim..you are cute...just another example why "our " guys are better looking...

 Thanks GoToMan! I appreciate that.  That made my day. 

awwwww....Well you know Jim this DOES mean that you can go shopping  ;)  Of course if you LIKE to shop.  I hate shopping  LOL

You know, even though I'm gay, I am not a real fan of shopping. It's okay.  I like shopping for movies, games, and music, but not clothes.  LOL

hello my newly enamoured brother...(how is the new BF??)

ok to your question...

yes... to everything...

I have gained 1/2 " in height...I think the fat is not compressing my spine..if that makes any since..

now on the inseam..when our pants are pulled to our waist...instead of under the belly...it takes longer pants...

and on the shoes...I had a 9 EEEEE now is a 7 1/2 M

Ok now back to you BF....give us the gossip...

LOL  he's doing good......the ex is giving him grief.......she's really a beyotch and a half.......casting stones because he's gay when she's been fooling around on him behind his back for the last 4 years of marriage.

i told him to get over here pronto so i can console him ;)

Aaron,

Yes. That happened to my partner Brett after his RNY. He was a 30" inseam and is now 32" and his shoe size went down a 1/2 size. For me, my 30" inseam no longer sweeps the floor but fits just right. I have worn a 8 1/2 for years. 2 weeks ago we were shopping and I bought 2 pairs of shoes: one a size 8 and the other a 7 1/2. I think the inseam is because they now really fit on the waist.

Dude... You are looking seriously good in the new pics! Congrats.

Hiya tom!

I'm not sure about the waist thing......I've always worn my pants OVER my belly button and still do.........if they went down then perhaps i wouldn't have a problem with the inseam......I'm wondering if it isn't back issues....less pressure and stuff on the spine.  OH and thank you for liking my new pics :)  those were clothes my dad gave me since he can no longer wear them (too small for him LOL)
