Calorie burn from heels

I wear heels 5 days a week at work. For half the day i have bum to seat. However, the other day I am walking around, carrying stuff, up and down stairs, or sometimes just standing because bums get sore. Heels vary in height from 3" to 6", yes i have issues with my real height. Is there a calorie burn going on? Not going to lie, some days i am more sore from walking than from running a 10k at lunch. OUCHIE!

Is this why strippers are in such good shape?

    Whatever you burn is from walking, not from wearing heels. That will not burn extra calories, only destroy your feet.

    I wear heels a lot great work out for your calves lol. But it doesn't burn extra calories but improves balance.
