Well I'm still pre-op but man if I lost even one shoe size I'd be over the moon.  I wear an 11 now and it's SOOOO hard to find cute shoes.  If I end up a 10, I'd be thrilled!

I am so the same way.  My only other problem is that mine are really wide.  So even 11's that fit are hard to find!

Still post- op too. But I would LOVE it if I lost a shoe size or even width. Always had wide feet and cute shoes just don't come in wide. I had never thought of losing a shoe size before. YAE something else to look forward to.

lol Mine are slightly wide but I shove my feet into whatever cute shoes I *can* find.  No wonder they usually hurt!  A 10 medium would be awesome

My feet have shrunk...I used to wear a size 12 mens shoe. Now I wear 11 or 11.5 As for widte, I never bought specific widths, but the only running shoe that was comfortable on me before were New Balance brand sneakers which are known for their width...Now I can wear any shoe, and my feet look more "veiny" instead of just swollen duck paddles!

During the few years of my life that I lived as a normal sized person, I wore a size 8 shoe. Before and after that, as a heavy person, I wear a 9 1/2. I think it probably has more to do with width than anything.

My shoe size went down from a 9 and a half to an 8 and a half or some shoes I can wear an 8...very nice...except I bought some Nike's before surgery and barely wore them...they only fit if I wear very thick socks...but oh well...what a problem to have huh?

Prior to WLS I was 12 www and now I can wear a 11w. Which is fine with me. Now I can go into any store an buy shoes. Where before I had special order online.
