This is laurie's husband. A girl at my work lost two shoe sizes

after she had a RY. What will happen for you is a mystery, but a new

shoe wardrobe will probably be necessary regardless if you are

anything like my wife. She can't wait to buy " cute shoes. " Thank

God women's shoes are so cheap compared to men's. I think they must

be considered accessories like hair ribbons. I'll never really get

it.
