New Kicks!

So, after putting it off for ages I finally broke down and bought new sneakers! Sport Check was having a buy-one second 1/2 price so hubby and I both got new kicks! I used to be a Nike girl, but a few years ago a shoe salesman, knowing I have a narrow heel and instep, asked me to try Asics. I've never turned back. They make a wonderful shoe that actually fits my foot. The other thing I wasn't aware of was that I was buying my shoes a 1/2 size too small - there should be room for the toes to move in the end without getting sore. I'm a  tad clumsy, so I always thought I should have a well fitted shoe that didn't have extra in the toe that would contribute to my tripping and falling : }

So, I'm off to Zumba class this morning in my new kicks - I'll let you know tomorrow how they performed! They were expensive, and I shudder to think of all the other things I could have done with the money, but this is part of the new mind set of 'I'm worth it'!



Also, I did my weigh-in for X-Weighted  and I'm down 2lbs (now 172lbs)! I think that's good and healthy. I only have 10 lbs to loose according to X-Weighted, but I think I'd like to loose more like 15. That would bring me to 160 and I think that's a perfect weight for me, my height and muscle mass.

We'll its off to class....
