Today I have found out that I have some very big shoes to fill.
I have always loved shoes, one of my favourite childhood memories is my sister and I trying on my Mum’s shoes – we couldn’t walk in them but we felt so grown up wearing them. My sister’s first word was shoes.
As an adult my love for shoes hasn’t gone away. I love them now for a totally different reason though, it’s because you can always walk in a shoe shop and something will generally fit you.
I don’t need to feel embarrassed, I don’t feel people are looking at me because shoes in my size always fit. That is why I love shoes.
I have always thought that your shoe size doesn’t change when you get to be an adult. Once an 8 always an 8.
Today I needed some new shoes so I chose a pair of enclosed slip on shoes. I asked for them in a size 8 but they were really big! So then I tried on a 7, they were also big, so I ended up leaving with a 6…
2 shoe sizes ! I can’t believe I have gone down 2 sizes, I already have new clothes to buy, I wasn’t banking on the fact that I would need new shoes too.
I think I can get over this very quickly; not sure Matt will when he sees the bank balance though.

It’s true! When you lose weight your shoe size also gets smaller. What’s more, the feet hurt less with walking. 🙂
