Question:
Did anyone lose a shoe size? I read that some have, but not sure.
I was wondering if everyone loses shoe size's or is it just going from a wider shoe to a normal shoe? Thanks for any input! — continuedmoon (posted on December 26, 2005)

When I gained weight, I went from a 6.5/7 to a tight 8/8.5 wide. I am now
back down to a 7, though I still need to buy a wide sometimes, depending on
the shoe. Losing shoe sizes was a really great surprise, and a nice bonus!

Kristie,
I went down 2 full sizes and 2 widths, it depends on what you lose and
where your weight gain was in your body.

I am 3 months out from surgery and I have had to buy all new shoes. I have
gone from a 9W to a 7 to 7.5 normal width!

Yes, before I gained weight I was a size 6 and when I gained weight I went
all the way up to a 8 1/2 wide!!! Now, my shoe size has shrunk and I can
get into a 6 1/2 or 7. I guess because our feet get fat like everything
else. Just like you will drop ring sizes..same with the feet.

I went from a 9.5/10 down to an 8, sometimes a 7.5..so yes, losing weight
changes your shoe size. Isn't it great!!!! :)

At 610 lbs I wore a size 10 1/2 to 11 shoe but now at 309 lbs I am in a 8
1/2 shoe. Yes you can and may lose a shoe size easily.
