Tall Boots/fat Calves??



Recommended Posts

I doubt it....those boots are made for a certain leg shape, fat or not. My husband asked me to wear white gogo boots for our 10 year anniversary in Las Vegas and I ordered a pair online that were marked "plus-size". Yeah right! I don't think they'll ever fit. I am going to add some rivets and lace them up the back.

I was in Lane Bryant the other day and noticed that they had some tall boots. I didn't try any on because i was in a hurry but you might give them a try. Come on, I would think that store would have to have some for us girls that have "shapely" legs. After all that's who they cater to, right?

I bought a pair of tall boots at Torrid...a store for 12 and over. They were cute however I had to return them because the shaft kept falling down.

Check the Woman Within catalog as they carry boots made for larger calfs.One word of caution though-I received their catalog in the mail and some of their boots and shoes are marked with a black square down beyond the product description in the catalog that denotes the item contains a hazardous material "known to cause cancer " that must be disclosed in the state of California.Its proposition 65.Look out for this if you buy boots or shoes from mail order as they must tell you which have hazardous materials .

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
