Ladies....

Since I put on all this weight, I can no longer support myself in heels. I am wondering if losing a good amount of my excess weight will allow me to walk in heels again?

Good question BellaDonna. I have back issues, which has effected my balance and with all this weight I gave up heels some time ago. It would be a shame to have to give away all of those nice shoes I have.

I hope so, Thats my theory about why I used to be able to wear heels without a problem.

I am happy to say that I am able to wear heels again. I have lost 100 lbs since I started my journey. I was only able to wear flats before losing the weight.

I am down 52 lbs and will be trying some heels this weekend. I hope that I can! I haven't been able to wear them for quite sometime.

I love how heels look, but I am the worlds biggest klutz so I can't wear them.

Belladonna, our starting weight and goal weight are very similar. I am 8 month post-op and I wear heels everyday to work! You can and you will; and you will feel fabulous when you do!

THANKS Curvy! Did you have trouble walking in heels when you weighed over 200 lbs? I can't bear it at all!

I'll be honest...I was definitely able to, but I would HUNT for wide set shoes that had stretchy material, or special order. The heels never exceeded two inches, and I could manage that way. I just LOVE heels!

I was still rocking 6 inch heels at 280 lbs I'm a lot more graceful now that I'm 100 lbs skinnier.. You'll be ok

There you are! Haven't seen you post in a while. I love looking at your pics. Your eyebrows are sick! Thanks for the feedback but 6 inches... I could never pull that off.... maybe 4. I said if I can make my goal I will buy myself a pair of Louboutins.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
