Day 43 - feet too fat?

Sorry not really a PCP related subject but I tried on a heap of my shoes last night only to discover that they don't fit. I am devastated.

These are some super cute and fierce shoes I bought on an internet shopping spree before I fell pregnant. Leopard peep-toe stellis, ankle booties etc. Some fantastic shoes that I was saving for special occasions and winter. But sadly, my feet have not returned to their pre-preggo size and so these shoes are unwearable. Even if I use leather stretchers.

I am totally bummed out as I really wanted to rock out at Melbourne Cup lunch next week. The zebra print and the retro 20's pumps don't fit either.  I think about 8 pairs are now unwearable. I could cry...

I need to try them all on and do a major cull as I do own over 60 pairs of shoes. I am SUCH a cliche.

But it means I have an excuse to go shoe shopping now though. Just hope that I can now fit Japanese shoes as I normally am the largest size that most shops carry. I will have to go to the big girls shoe shops.

PCP redux going fine despite having the in-laws around. I am cooking dinner for them at night and eating my apple, eggwhite dinner. I then pack a lunch box for work and all is good. Still sneaking a few choccies in but hey, ya gotta live.

Feeling good as I am getting in all my workouts and skipping and am really genki. I can really outstrip the in-laws in walking speed as they are so used to their cars. They have been very complementary and supportive on the weight loss as they saw me at my absolute worst in April/May.

As an aside, I was thinking today that I haven't had a cold or other illness in ages. Is this from all the vegies I have been feeding my body I wonder?  Now that I have typed this, I will be hit by the flu next week or something else hideous.
