Congratulations! You look great!

I, for one, do not care if I never wear high heels for the rest of my life. Life is too short!

@@jenn1 Being that I live close to Vegas I'm sure I can find a Hooker...don't know how much I will have to spend to borrow her heels though.

high heels can be torture devices. i have worn combat boots, no make up, hair pulled back or cut off. At work for years. It paid off to look like a guy. I'm having the time of my life. High heels, make up and dresses. They are simple pleasures in life for me. I'm making up for lost time :)

@Elode -- That photo? That is one hot shot. Tell me something. Did you pierce that ugly pumpkin with a heel as practice/prelude to something else?

Beware, here comes a serious NSV report which, alas, I have since undone. Way back when I was making a killing with my band, I noticed that, when I crossed my legs, the knee-down portion of the top leg hung parallel to the knee-down part of the lower leg instead of sticking out at a noticeable angle. And the top leg made it farther up the lower leg so that more of the lower knee was visible. That's the best I can describe it at this hour. Anyway, I want that again.

@@jenn1 No addiction yet. I use to hate buying shoes! It was like buying a car...yuck! I don't have a lot. Between school and scrubs there wasn't a lot of "cute" shoe time but it's growing on me. I really like boots! I'm working on the heels.

@@WLSResources/ClothingExch Lol! No! That pumpkin came from our garden that my wonderful husband planted too early. It's the only one that made it (it was pretty at one time). I think we are having separation issues with a side of being too lazy to drag it off the porch right now. Worry not, we have a beautiful one carved by a 6 year old that you just can't see in the picture that makes up for it. ;)

Love the shoes! I have always worn heels and have what we affectionately call "the wall" with shelves of shoes. The trick to starting out is to have a bit of platform in the front versus a thin surface like yours. Those hurt more and the platform, even the smallest of platforms in the front, helps a ton for stability and comfort. Just a little suggestion for newbies :)

@@VDLT Thank you! I'll take all the help I can get. My mom was a nurse and in healthcare also so she never wore heels. I think they are pretty and admire people who can pull it off. My finance coordinator at work always wears them even out on the floor. I don't know how she does it. Just give me my comfy ugly nursing shoes and I'm good!

I actually bought those particular shoes for grand baby's baby shower. I was barefoot after 20 mins :) My grandson is 4 months so it's been awhile, I thought I'd try it again. Still painful!

@@WLSResources/ClothingExch You'll be relieved to know the ugly pumpkin has deflated, therefore it will be kicked over the edge to the pumpkin graveyard.

Not at all relieved. Somehow, this year, a Trader Joe's copywriter charmed me. I never read their circulars, but somehow I noticed this month's chockablock with pumpkin food products. One jumped out: the copywriter described one as having been "pumpkified." For me it was love at first sight.

Does it look like a deflated basketball? RIPP.

When I lived in Atlanta I passed a shoe store every day that specialized in large-sized high heels.

There is a booming transvestite and cross-dressing community who love their heels.

Our burn pile had a whole bunch of pumpkins growing this year because that was where we dumped the ones that look like yours last year.

      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.
