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:

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:

      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.
