Not so great NSV
My most favorite shoes in the world are too wide now. They fall off when I walk really fast. I didn't see that one coming. It's still a NSV because all the shoes in my closet that felt a little tight feel great now! I was wearing a 6.5 W which usually equated to a 7W because 6.5s are hard to find. I think I can wear just plain old 6.5s and 7s now. Yippee, more shoes to choose from. But, I need to find some new favorite ones. Dang!

Yep- same here. I wore 6.5W. Now I can wear 6.5 and some 6's. Don't got out and buy a bunch of new shoes just yet - you're feet may still be changing! I think thats a great NSV BTW - shopping!!!!

I LOVE thrift stores. Unfortunately I didn't discover them until I was done losing. I think I still did well with my bargain finds... but now I've got WAY too many clothes. Swore I wouldn't do that again, but shopping is now so much more fun!!

I can wear some smaller shoes now but not always. My wide feet are still wide and some shoes fit and some don't. Don't buy much before you are done because you never know.

Yeah, the shoe size thing wasn't something I expected either!
I was size 8.5 and now 7.5-8....just had to buy all new sandals as mine so loose now. Luckily my running shoes still work. This is why I have shopped in thrift stores this whole journey until just recently....this is an expensive (but fun!) journey!!
Blessings!!

Love that NSV! I also found that i slipped out of a lot of shoes, but could finally wear my old shoes that used to be uncomfortable. I was an 8.5W. Now I wear anything from a regular 7.5 to a 9. The 9 is for cheap flats that didn't used to offer enough support for me to wear them at all. Now I add a little stick-on arch and i'm good to go.
Have fun shopping. (My husband will never get the 'women can never have enough shoes" thing. And of course it's worse cause I figure I'm making up for lost time getting really cute shoes.
