http://tracker.dailyburn.com/groups/52/subjects/4145 <p>Has anyone else experiencing shrinking feet "first" when they begin losing weight? Last week, I was able to get into some shoes I haven't worn in about 2 years because of constant weight gain and swollen feet. This week, those same shoes are too big on my feet! I could barely get into work because my shoes were falling off.</p> <p>Phenomenon? I've only lost 8 lbs so far.</p> en-us <p>I have experienced the same , but just before I started dieting. I went perimenopausal early (about 40). Five years on , and the process is still incomplete but big changes are taking place , I think my drop in shoe size is mostly due to my age and my hormones. Since dieting and loosing up to 10lbs (of the 16lbs I want to drop) , my shoe size has not further reduced. My hands , wrist , ankles and feet , have never really put weight on with me , nor the reverse. In others it could be simply down to weight and fluid loss or reduction in inflammation due to the feet previously dealing with excess weight?????? I can't seem to find any evience either way on the www. But I do know I have lots of shoes now that are too big for my feet.&nbsp;</p> gmcg Thu, 15 Dec 2011 03:13:24 -0600 http://tracker.dailyburn.com/groups/52/subjects/4145 12863 <p>Has your activity level changed any?&nbsp; Is there a dietary change you've made recently?&nbsp; To me, it sounds more like reduction of inflammation than standard weight loss.</p> dawnmathmom Wed, 19 Oct 2011 11:04:31 -0500 http://tracker.dailyburn.com/groups/52/subjects/4145 12631
