Transcript

One thing that nobody warns you about when you started GLP1 is that your shoes are no longer going to fit. I have so many sneakers, so many shoes, but none of them fit me. Like these. These are so freaking cute. Do they fit me? No. Let's go to the mall and buy some lifting shoes because the ones that I currently have, they no longer fit. Our stops going to be Vans just because Vans, they're flat. So it's going to be easier like whenever I'm doing the weights and stuff like that. My size is 7 and a half, which I'm gonna get. Since our feet do tend to swell whenever we work out. And I think they're cute. So this is everything that I got. These are a size six in kids. Are they cute? These are a size seven in women. And I could wear them to the gym or like for everyday wear. Which is crazy to me that I went from an 8 and a half to now wearing a size seven to seven and a half. That's insane.
