Here is another shot from the weekend. Here is an old Client Bea who stopped me for a quick shot! Thanks for sharing Bea! So I have been having trouble with my right pinky toe… I have had pain on the outer side and thought it was a blister from my shoes, maybe a corn, bunion, wasn’t sure… I have been switching out my shoes but they all hurt and it has been getting worse and worse to the point where I use a bandage in order to make it comfortable. I have switched shoes and the all hurt so thought it was something more serious. I went to the podiatrist today to find out it is nothing at all!! It is from my shoes and the reason it hurts in all my shoes now is that once one pair of shoes caused the pain, the only thing that is going to get rid of the pain is time. I always wear Asics but Michael gave me a pair of Nike Shocks for Christmas. They hurt at first but then I was surprised I was able to wear them pain free… I have never been able to workout in Nike’s with out them killing my feet. We’ll sure enough, I have to say I think I am blaming my pain on those darn Nike’s. I am all about my Asics and now will be sticking to those, regardless if Nike has some that are more stylist! It is all about the comfort of your shoes and finding the right brand to fit your feet! Regardless of your favorite Cute Pair of sneakers, remember your poor feet! We are on them too much to mess around! Where would we be without our feet??! I must say that pain made me realize how much we take our feet for granted. I was having problems walking and thought, oh my gosh to not be able to walk, run, workout, use my feet!!! omg, the thought made me sick! love your feet!! Make sure you are using the right brand and they are comfortable. Another note, be sure you are not wearing your shoes too small, apparently I have been~!
Here is a picture of my poor toe. I now have to wear a special bandage until it heals. The bandage looks like a doughnut that goes over the blister, the hole for the blister so that it doesn’t rub on my shoes. But the good news is, it is a minor problem and now I know what it is!! Asics it is for me!! I am playing catch up from the weekend. Made a to do list and just going down the list checking this off… I have a big week ahead with more catch up and check marks to be made, heading up to LA tomorrow to pick up my new Car :), tax appointment on Wednesday among everything else.
