I woz brave!

Starburst

Sophie loves UGGs. They are soft, cosy and comfortable but they don't support my feet. I had it in my head that all trainers are ugly runners shoes and not suitable for 23 year old me to wear on a daily basis, especially not with skinny jeans. Shock horror!!!! Today, I managed to find an amazing pair that I love. Not only are they propers shoe that cover the ankles but they have streaks of turquoise and bright pink shoe laces and all for only £25! It might sound like an average every day thing for most people but accepting that I need to make more adjustments to my life has been a big deal.

I felt quite inspired after my shoe success and popped down to my local gym to become a member. Obviously, I can't do much exercise but my physio said 20 mins of swimming a few times a week would be a good start. My next task is finding suitable swimwear and my plan is to brave the water on monday morning! Wish me luck. Or rather, wish the other swimmers luck. I've piled on the pounds since my diagnosis. :sad:

Yay!!!!

Im also an UGG fan and the same as you didnt fancy trainers as they look rather 'chavy' lol
And being 26 want something a bit funky!! So i went and got some hightops in a fab pink! and they support my ankles... so i know how you feel when finally find something!

As so the swimming Im joining you there as well, made a promise to myself to lose weight and help my poor knees! Although im going for aqua aerobics as I hate to swim but love water lol

All the best on finding your swimsuit xx

Glad to hear you found some pretty trainers and at a great price too!

The physio has tasked me with doing exercise, we've discussed aquaerobics and she recommends it. I was going to go today but I've managed to screw my back up so it will have to wait till next week... I will go though!
