I got shoes!! Earlier today I did my first walk and was reminded how I really shouldn't be trying to do much walking in the shoes I wear for work. There just isn't any support.
So I decided to try to fit new working out shoes into my budget. Thank god for Ross. I managed to pick up a nice looking pair of LA Gear shape and tone sneakers. Only $16.99!! I am very excited. I even got some new socks, and will be trying these babies out on my 3pm break.


Also I am not sure why but my energy level is fantastic today!

Good shoes are definitely essential if you're going to be doing a lot of walking. These should be fine to get you started, just know that you get what you pay for. A dear friend here recommended I go to a running store for a gait analysis & I ended up walking out with a $114 pair of running shoes. My body has thanked me profusely. I just replaced them but will probably pull them out for stuff like all-day shopping or things like that. Something to think about as you continue in your new lifestyle!

I saw all kinds of things online after I bought the shoes. Wishing I would have just gotten a pair of regular sneakers now. I tried them out and holy cow the pain. I know it is because I haven't been using these muscles in a long time. I just hope the pain fades after I use them more. I know I need to go do something like you did because of the way I walk and the manner in which my heels wear down but I needed something to tide me over until I could do that. I don't want to not walk. Gotta keep this girl moving!
