I can't return the shoes because I have already worn them for the past few days. I don't think the shoes are the problem though. I do notice a big difference in how I place my feet on the ground with the new shoes. I think a big part of it is that I am starting off too fast too soon. I think apart of it is that I am trying to keep up with my sister who has a longer stride than me and that's hard. Thanks, Cindy!

I meant to leave these links for you in case you might be interested. This is the link to the pair of NB Walking Shoes I own. Not really pretty, but they had a pink ribbon for Breast Cancer Awareness that gave them a hint of pink. I purchased mine for a dual purpose in running and to support my Mom and of course because it didn't feel like I had anything on my feet. http://www.amazon.com/New-Balance-Womens-WW845-Walking/dp/B0014S8V2Q/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=sporting-goods&qid=1267175893&sr=8-2-catcorr And this is the pair of NB Running shoes I own. Not pretty, but comfortable. I purchased both the walking and running shoes from Nordstroms about two years ago. I was able to locate these on Amazon in case you are interested to read about them. Had no idea they sold these. Should have known though. Could have saved some $. Anyway, there are so many models to choose from. I happen to like this pair for running, and the pair for walking are so so comfortable. The running shoes were about $125 and the walking $100 when I purchased them. Pricey, but worth every penny. http://www.amazon.com/Womens-New-Balance-1221-Running/dp/B0000UT1ZU Hope you find relief in your walking. Cindy :) Hi Again . . .

The body fluctuates so much- that yes, indeed your body will gain .8 if you drink .8 lbs of H20. Experiment by getting on the scale before holding a 16 oz bottle of water. Get back on it holding the 16 oz bottle and you will notice you are up by that much. Whether you drink it or hold it, the gain will appear on the scale. 100 years ago when I was a member of weight watchers, I would not drink any water or eat before weigh in. Only afterwards. Our bodies fluctuate so much throughout the day, that I didn't even want to be up an oz on weigh in day. I admire your endurance with your program. The shoes are probably the most important part of your walking program. In high school I wore Nike, Brooks and then happened upon the New Balance for walking and long distance running. I've been wearing them for over 25 years now and won't go back to anything else. They aren't the most feminine looking shoes, but for comfort and support, they really do rock! You might want to consider exchanging the Nike for the New Balance if you continue to have a problem. You are doing incredible! Averaging over 3 #'s loss a week! Awesome! Keep up the good work. You inspire us all! You remind me so much of Terri. Take care! Cindy Hi Kris!

Because what they've done to her so far hasn't really been fair. She needs more exposure and hopefully she'll get another chance next week. I hope you’re right!

I have adjusted my opinion a bit. I still think people are a little too uptight and getting themselves upset over this is silly. However I do see the blatant, in your face shock value that is pissing everyone off. I was thinking he was expressing himself, but now it is obvious it was a publicity stunt, which has totally worked in his favor. The performance was a big "F U" and based on his interviews and comments I do see your point. I watched the show a few more time, and have been following the aftermath.
