The Secret To A Long and Happy Life Must Be Fabulous Shoes

Posted on 14 January 2010

I plan on living until I am 100.

When I am 100 I want to be able to walk on my own, know who I am without having to be reminded, and laugh until my stomach hurts.

This is why I am torturing myself by going to see my trainer for a near death experience once a week and eating Primal.

Do you know how hard it is to give up everything except meat, eggs, vegetables, fruits, and some dairy?

This means no brownies, chips, mac ‘n cheese, cookies, candy bars, or even popcorn.

My world is officially devoid of all comfort food.

Yesterday I desperately wanted something to ‘crunch’ while watching TV so I ate half a jar of mini dill pickles.  The crunch was satisfying, but the churning in my tummy wasn’t.

During my last training session while trying to run a mile as fast as womanly possible my calves seized.  My left leg ended up at the back of the treadmill clanging around as I tried to keep the conveyor belt from sucking it under.  Luckily I got my right leg off the belt, but it has completely seized as well.  As I fell forward in a semi-panicked state, I managed to push the ‘OFF’ button.

After limping off the treadmill and stretching out, I was told this is a direct result of wearing high heels too often.

My heart nearly broke in two.

I have given up so much already!  My new comfort food is dill pickles people!  There is no way I am giving up my shoes too.

In an act of pure defiance, I purchased a brand new pair of fabulous heels.

They are so fabulous that they almost make up for the lack of comfort food!

I see no reason to NOT wear these.  In fact, I think they just added 2 years onto my life.

    Those are the most fantastic shoes i have seen in a very very long time. That may have something to do with the fact that i live in the north pole, But seriously. LOVE them!

      Oh Heidi! They are fabulous, I agree. Unfortunately I can’t wear them right now due to the snow drifts and huge amounts of ice….not to mention frost bite. ;)

  • These shoes are absolutely delicious. And as you WELL know, yes, shoes can be very delicious.

    Of course, you’ll have to let me know if your lack of comfort food leads to discovering if this is true literally…. ;)
