Hi everyone,

I have wanted boots for my wide calves (even after all my weight loss they're still too big for off the shelf boots) for 20 years and I finally found them. I ordered 2 pairs and they are BEAUTIFUL and SEXY. So for anyone who hasn't been able to find wide calf boots, or didn't think they even existed, go to widewidths.com, you won't be sorry!

i just saw an ad for something similar on telly here the other day and thought "about time". I know quite a few normal weight people who cant wear boots!

I have the opposite problem, my boots look a bit like I'm playing dress ups in mummy's clothes, lol, because I have skinny calves. I'd love a bit more shape to them actually. We're never happy are we?

Yay to sexy boots for women of all sizes!

:thumbup:I'm going to check it out. I also LOVE boots. I'm hoping with more weight loss that will help with the calf problem. I grew up in Michigan and always had the most unattractive boots because my calfs were so big the boot top wouldn't go up. I'm tickled to hear that you found something that you like so much.

Here is the answer ladies. I bought these boots last year when my calfs were absolutely HUGE and they fit. They are really stylish and sexy. They are tall calf boots that lace up the back. The extra wide size fits a calf of 18" to 20" !!!!! They come in black and brown and are $154 at zappos and ard called Formula by David Tate. Here's the link Formula by David Tate at Zeta Zappos

Excellent! Thank you for the link. I never thought about measuring my calves. I was always down about them ever fitting. I have several pairs of boots but they are mid-calf and not form fitting (loose fitting). I also like these boots because the heel is low. Many boot's heels are very tall and not practical.

This is great, cause I am down 73 pounds now and still can't get the high ankle boots I have to get past my ankle. Hopefully they have something that will help me.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
