I put in my Lane Bryant knee boots this morning and they're TOO BIG for my calves! I has been under the impression that my calves were mostly muscle until now. They're getting smaller! My sleeve still amazes me!

Congratulations! At about 9 months out, I had to get all new shoes. Didn't realize my feet were fat, too, but they were.

Time to go get yourself some sexy new boots at a non-Lane Bryant store!!!!

Thanks! I'm hoping my feet go down. They've gone up about a 1/2 size over the last year. Here's hoping!

Oh, I wish I had that problem - my calves are still freakishly large and won't fit into normal boots.

Thanks!! I've never been able to wear boots either! Hence the Lane Bryant boots ;) Even at my thinnest in high school, I had thick calves. It's so WEIRD to see my legs getting smaller!
