Strangely shrinking feet???

[red_mct]

Ok, has anyone else experienced this? I have lost the "final 10" pounds with Cathe over the last three months. I am down two dress sizes and look and feel great. This weekend I was going to a wedding, so I needed to get new shoes. I have been a 7.5 for years... I was always a 7, then after my second pregnancy, I was a 7.5. My youngest is 6, so I've been that shoe size for a looooong time. But this weekend, all of the 7.5s were very loose and uncomfortable. Some 7s fit but I even had 6.5s on my feet!!!! I thought this was really weird. I work in a very conservative place and tend to buy a lot of dress shoes, so I don't think the sizes were just running differently.

Very odd, I must say. I wonder if Cathe can include that in her marketing materials. Paris Hilton (a size 11! I don't like her at all but that must be very hard) might take note.

Cheers,
Marie

Marie,
The same thing happened to me several years ago when I lost about 20 pounds, went from an 8 to about a 7. The good news, if you have favorite shoes you might want to hold onto them, b/c once I started doing Cathe for a few months I developed muscles in my feet that put me back into at least 7.5 often 8 for exercise shoes especially. This also happened with my husband who was a 13 and is now an 11.5
Go figure,
Mattea

My feet have gotten bigger since I started lifting. Not longer per say, but definitely wider. The podiatrist told me it's from heavy squats. Go figure is right.
