Ditto for me, 1/2 size down. I did not expect the (wonderful) expense that came along with the losses, and most definitely did not expect to need a new shoe wardrobe of all things!
I'm not there yet, but I sure hope I can be as lucky as all of you. I'm currently a size 12, and would love to be able to buy cute shoes.
It is so difficult when one has "big" feet (I am a size 10) to find some cute shoes.... I agree totally and I hope I can fall to the 9.5 size so I will maybe find shoes I like to wear !
Purplemomster - I am right there with you in regards to shoes! Although my wallet will hurt, I would love to get back to maybe a 9 from where I am at a 9.5 or 10 'cause nothing would make me happier than buying new shoes!
We are lucky to have a wonderful, new. clean thrift store new me and I have found gorgeous designer and top names shoes there, so I know I will make some visits there. Good place to drop off any I "grow" out of.
My size changed mainly in width. I was formerly a 9.5 wide. If the shoe only came in a regular width, then I needed a 10 (and often that wouldn't work). I've lost 40 lbs and I'm now a 9.5 regular, although I can also wear a 9.0 wide (the 9.5 regular is a slightly better fit though).
I am hoping to eventually get back to my 8 from the 9.5 I am today.. I think my shoe size increased .5 for each child. I would even be happy with an 8.5!
Although I just bought a bunch of super cute shoes this past year.. oh, well someone on ebay may get lucky if my foot gets smaller... I think its worth it!
