Tall Boots/fat Calves??

Okay, I've read quite a few of the "skinny bucket lists" on here and notice that alot of you, like me, want to lose weight so we can wear sexy tall boots. Well here I sit, less than 30 lbs from my goal...and as of a month ago I tried on a pair and it still wasn't happening! *sad face* With only 30 lbs left to go I don't know how much of that can possibly come from my calves. Is there people at their goal who still can't wear them? Sheesh, are my calves really that fat? I assumed that any 150 lb girl whose an 8/10 like I should/hopefully will be would be able to wear tall boots!

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?

Last year I wasn't able to wear boots. I was banded Oct 26, 2012...down 26 lbs and I bought boots at The Avenue....so pretty and sexy too. Please check them out...you'll be glad!!!

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 .

Try Nine West.
