I'm not against plastic surgery, but................

in Chit-Chat
A female regular in my gym, who has had a few plastic surgery procedures (boobs and lips), was obviously limping around while doing her upper body workout. I asked one of the trainers if they knew what was up and she said she had gotten foot surgery. I'm like "ooh, I hope it doesn't take long to heal", and my peer said "well that's why she got it. To where heels!"
After googling it, apparently this is rising trend.

So would you get a pinky toe cut off or altered, or have toe surgery to wear heels?

    That is revolting. And I live in flip flops or barefoot all summer. There's no way I'm lopping off my little toe to fit better in high heels. I adore high heels, and wear them for going out occasions, but I'll take the cramped foot and aching arch over removing a toe.

    I've never had issues with heels, but it makes me wonder what type of monster feet did she have? yikes

    Usually you buy shoes to fit your feet, not pay to have your feet fit your shoe!

    I'm scared of heights. Gimme flats!

    Isn't your pinky toe important to maintaining proper balance???

    If that's true, then she's an idiot (sounds like an idiot to begin with).

    That being said, if I brought a girl home to romp around with, I took her shoes off and BAM! no pinky toe. I'd be freaked out!

    Seriously??? :sick:

    My knees can't handle heels very much at all...I am happy with bare feet or sneakers. :wink:

    I kind of like my pinky toe...

    did she have man feet? Why the need to cut off a toe or 2?!? Oh ouch. And, yea, no. I would not. My dainty little feet fit just fine in heels.

    If heels are too uncomfortable to wear, then why wear them? Stupid.

    I wear heels occasionally and, yeah, they're pretty uncomfortable because I haven't worn out and toughened up my feet by wearing them every day. However, my toes aren't the problem and they're staying put.

    To each their own, but that's extreme in my opinion.

    Nope I almost lost my pinky toe n a freak accident at the fair when a empty 4H pin fell and landed on it crushing all the bones. They told me that if it turned black and they had to remove it I would have to go through physical therapy to just be able to learn balance again and would never walk the same. I was worried how it would look in sandals. I did get to keep it but on the note of plastic surgery I have had some after having 2 kids and going through basic training with the army I lost all my weight plus some but found I had lose skin hanging off my stomach that would never tighten back up and my breast sagged and seemed empty more like tittie skins than boobs :( so I had them lifted which consist of excess skin being removed so my natural fat that was there would make be noticed and had the tummy tuck where they removed all the hanging skin. In this process they did remove 5 lbs of fat. I have found that since the surgery I struggle with fat in other areas since the fat cells were removed from my stomach I now gain in my thighs and butt which makes me look really unbalanced if my weight goes up and difficult for fitting clothes

    I wouldn't have it done. But I also don't care what other people do with their bodies. You know, 'cause it's none of my business.

    She''s actually pretty petite. I don't really notice her feet. But I've seen her come in lots of times all dressed up in designer clothing and she does drive a Jaguar S type ($100,000 car). So at this point I'm assuming she did it to wear designer shoes.
