    If I wear heels when I'm going to be walking a lot, I get severe lower back pain the next day (even with low heels).

    So, I love how they look, but I can't do the heel thing often.

    Love heels too. i don't wear them unless I go out, but just walk with confidence and honestly, get good shoes. A good quality stiletto can be extremely comfortable!

    Now that I'm 40 lbs lighter I love wearing heels. I will only wear them if they are comfortable and finding an affordable/comfortable heel is sometimes hard to come by.

    Does anyone have a problem with their heels becoming too big for them after losing weight? Its only by 1/2 an inch or so but when you walk it makes a difference if you feel like your foot is going to slide out a little. Is there anything you can do for them so they fit better? I hate to have to not wear them because my foot shrunk a little.

    I recommend starting with a wedge or espedrill (spelling :() One with ribbon that ties up your ankle may be a good start to get used to the feel, and help with balance. They are also great for spring and summer, once your good at that, move on to a pump, and don't forget inserts, I like Dr. sholls inserts.

    I NEVER wear heels. They hurt my feet too much. I'm 5'4 and okay with being short. I only wear flats!!

    Oh I do the park/ride to work so I go to work in a flat or a tennis shoe and then change into my heels at work. Yes I am one of those that you see wearing a pair of Nike's w/ a dress or skirt. I don't care...it saves my feet a ton!

    Absolutely can. I'm rocking 5" platform stilettos right now at work. Love, love, LOVE the way I feel when I wear heels :happy:

    Hell to the no! LOL

    I hate wearing heels of any height. My walk is so awkward in them and, besides, I'd rather walk around barefoot or in flip flops.

    I wear them occasionally when I have to for social functions but they always end up coming off and I walk around barefoot, :laugh:

    I feel like a horse when I'm in heals, because all you here is clump clump clump. Boots and flats all the way.

    Since I was a little girl, my favourite shoes have always been the ones that make a clickety-clic when I walked... Think red patent leather Mary-Janes (so glad I have girls now!)

    Love heels and don't care that I stand taller than my hubby when I wear them!

    i wear heels almost everyday and im 5'11" barefoot. :p the weather up here is nice ;)

    my suggestion would be to start off with a high wedge style shoe. this offers balance while still giving you the heel height, plus theyre comfy! i personally dont like any heel less than 3.5inches.

    I buy them but can't walk in them, I feel so unstable and I look like an idiot.

    I have more of a problem wearing flats than heels. I've always been a heel wearer. Today's shoes are 5" with a platform.

    Heels are more comfortable than flats, IMO.

    If I'm going out, I'm most likely in heels :wink:

    I do not, unless I have no choice. I'm a tomboy at heart, and walking in heels is uncomfortable and makes me feel like a complete idiot

    I stick with flats. I find heels to be painful and too restrictive.

    I've tried heels and its just not for me. Balancing my weight on two little things is not easy1
