FLOWERDUDE's Journal, 02 March 2011

Wondering if anyone else is experiencing hip discomfort from wearing shape ups? Shoes, that is.

BTW, today starts the 11th month on Atkins... and (humbly) 97 lbs released so far. I keep looking at the top of my page and seeing my weight number and think it is a mistake. Is that my weight? really?? Really?! hee hee hee. 3 lbs away... and in all likelihood... 100 lbs gone in just a year. Unbelieveable... and I am living it out.
245.0 lb Lost so far: 97.0 lb.    Still to go: 25.0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.
losing 2.3 lb a week

Is it bad to wear them all day? I stand on my feet a good 6-7 hrs a day at my design counter...and that is what have been wearing... I just wonder if I am over doing it.

Really don't know but I think it might be over doing it a bit! Maybe you have to build the time up slowly!

Hey Steve - I never did get any...as I read an article about studies that showed no difference in muscle tone or development, than folks that just wore a quality pair of sneakers. (so I saved the cash and bought a new pair of sneaks for the gym.) Hey, btw, is your flower shop in Middle? or Nashville? ...are you online? would love to check it out for ideas for my daughters wedding! Hope you feel stronger soon!

I've only been wearing my pair of Shape Ups for a few small walks, but no pain so far. I have a few friends who swear by them. I like them because they are so cushiony but don't really notice that my butt is doing any more work than normal :) Be gone 3 pounds!!!

I am so proud of you Steve. No, I have never had pain from wearing them. If anything they help me when I am in pain. Maybe it's because you haven't been walking/standing correctly for so long that correcting it is what's hurting? If it hurts too much you might want to not wear them for long periods of time. Sending you lots of love my dear.
