High Heels - High Costs - read on...

Okay - have to share. You can check my old posts and you will see I have told you all about the Shoe Diet - first blogger to do so :-)

You were all snoozing, and you know what happens then; you snooze, you lose.

Anyhow, for those who need to be told upfront about things that are affecting their health, it is splashed - yes, splashed no less - across at the last count: 6 of today's papers (I started writing this before midnight, so I mean 1st October).

One quote to whet your appetite is:

Emma Supple, consultant podiatrist for the MBT Academy, said: "While we all love our high heels, wearing them for prolonged periods is bad news for our health and our wallets."

But the headline that was catching the interest of the public and journalists alike, and mentioned on today's GMTV was: "Corns account for 12% of high heel injuries, and with treatment costing £800 a time, this costs the nation £2.9 million per annum".

And I (Liska) haven't had hard skin since I started wearing MBTs, so it saves me a fortune; only luxury is having the toes painted every now and again, which is so much more luxuious than seeing white dust everywhere as you scrub off hard (unnecessary skin) -YUK!

Perfect Shoe Diet text from Emma:
Foot expert Emma Supple told Daily Mail: "We need to mix and match our choice of footwear to allow our bodies time to recover. Heaven forbid that we ban heels from our wardrobes but we want to balance out our heel wearing days, protect our bodies from future damage and avoid injuries."

Shoe Diet

Been at work all day so nothing to report except an update on the Shoe Diet, from MBT which you simply must try.

I just entered in my shoe diet diary that I have been in my MBTs today for 18 hours and not only did it give me an A+ but it said the following:

You're doing a fantastic job of keeping your MBT Shoe Diet score low - you obviously care about your body's health and wellbeing.

Two days in and you're really going strong today. You may already be aware that women's bad shoe habits cause them to undergo nasty treatments: bunion removal, toe straightening, and even cosmetic surgery. Wearing a well balanced diet of shoes has so many benefits, it keeps your feet and the entire body healthy.

Anyway, they are obviously lovely motivating words to hear at the end of a long hard day. Bye for now. More news tomorrow.......

The Shoe Diet and the last post of the day

Okay, so I have been a bit addicted to the laptop these last few days............. back to reality and work tomorrow. Oh the joy of Sunday nights and Monday mornings, and they seem to come round often, as those weeks fly by.

Well folks, last post of the day here, because if I don't post it now, it'll probably be another week before I do, and I wouldn't want you to miss out.

Do you want to find out how good your shoes are to you?
Are they there for fashion or function?
Do they give you beauty or bunions?

Well............... make up your own mind. Do your feet ache at the end of the day?

Play around with the Shoe Diet, and then you will know how to strike a balance
and maybe strike a pose toooooooooooooo :-)
