    Thanks all, I know I’m super lucky to have MiL :A.

    Maddie, I’m a size 7 in their flip flops and an 8 in the boots :cool:. SA, I’ve tried Sketchers but they don’t work as well for me as FitFlops do. I’d never have thought of QVC though, so thanks for that. Hairy, the boots aren’t exactly high fashion, and the price is shockingly high, but the wobbleboard sole is the best thing I’ve found for my PF.

    DH saw the Epilepsy Nurse today, and we explained his mood swings etc. She has to run it past the Consultant first, but we’ve been told to expect a letter increasing one of his meds :T.[/QUOTEDue

    I am a six, if we had been the same I have some ff clogs you could have had, shame:(, but pleased you have your boots now.:D

  • I’m afraid I can’t think what MBT are sA :o?

    Maddie, that’s really kind of you to offer. Shame we aren’t the same size :A.

    Horrendous tummy pains for me since yesterday. Think it’s an IBS flare up so will keep taking the meds and see how I go. Got to face the scales in just over an hour :eek:. Hope I haven’t undone all my good work over the last 6 weeks.

    Glad the Epilepsy nurse could offer some hope in a meds change!

    I hope the scales are kind for you

    So we have a Mr Sleek and Miss Sleek in our sights :rotfl:

    MBTs were trainers with wobbly soles, said to help with weight loss. They did take quite a bit of getting used to.

    Great news re the vouchers and fruit basket :)
