Who dreams of wearing stilletoes?



Recommended Posts

Ok, if you're like me, you can't wear heels for more than a minute without your feet squealing in pain. I'm hoping, that once I get close to goal, I will be able to tolerate wearing pretty, girly gorgeous heels!

Who else dreams of wearing heels? And if you're at or close to goal, are you able to wear them again?

Oh now there's a dream!! I haven't worn high heels in years and years and years. I managed to put a pair on for my daughter's wedding 4 years ago (for the first time in ages) and my feet were KILLING me within about half an hour. Haven't even tried since then.

*sighs* One day...

I can now wear heels!! I wore 5in heels to my Christmas party. I was in pain by the end of the night but it was 5 hours. I can easily wear 3in heels. I wear a size 6 1/2 so I really don't have the foot for super high heels. woohoooo! Bring on the pretty shoes :biggrin:

LOL John, what she doesn't know won't hurt, right? Hey T, wanna have a ritual burning of the orthotics when we get there? They just don't make pretty shoes for orthotics!

Oh yes please!!! High, high heels, and knee high boots. No, knee high boots with high, high heels! I don't know which will be worse, DSW shoes, or Zappos.com!

I've never worn jeans and high heels, and I've always wanted to.

I don't think I ever got the memo I couldn't wear heels! In fact, the bigger I got, the more I've worn them!!!! It was the one thing I could control -- what I put on my feet!!!

Probably I just headed to the shoe store every time I got depressed trying on clothes!! LOL

Oh man, I so want to wear hot sexy heels, but I am afraid of falling down and humiliating myself! How does one learn to walk in them???

I got some boots from target that are knee high with ~4 inch heels. Regular shoes with heels that high would kill, but I think since they are boots with good ankle support, they work better. :lol:

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
