Should i have done this?

I have the monacos too! I found that the leather on mine stretched a bit after a few weeks of riding nearly every day. so if you have not worn them a lot yet I would put them away until you are at your goal weight so that you can break them in and stretch them when you are at the size you want to be. Wear paddock boots until then, you rarely have to worry about their size changing! I can't really help with your second question though, I have no clue!
