So I have been wearing lifts during the holidays. I figure if I cant pass this off now I sure as hell wont be able to pass it off later.
My total shoe height matches my procedure height which is coming up soon (5CM). Wont get into details but Ive set this up so Im wearing shoes all the time in a non-obvious way.
Anyway, weve been out and about and my dad is like trying to figure out why Im taller in his head. Except he doesnt look at me as tall, hes looking at himself as short. Like looking at his shoes, then looking back at me. Like the gears are spinning but nothing is registering. The confusion is getting hilarious. Ive really set this up in a way where lifts are not something he would think of. But it perfectly matches what others describe. Theres this puzzle going on and its just really funny to watch and act oblivious to. Note that I have a somewhat legit medical reason to be taller though which Im not going to get into. So your experience may vary if you dont have any sort of excuse.
Im really confident on this procedure after doing this.
I see why people say the reactions are funny to watch
Lmao, 3 inches does sound like a pain to walk in, youre in high heel territory. And its honestly just too much to hide. If I did 3 my dad would have said wtf are you doing. Its just too obvious. 2 inches is possible if you carefully craft a narrative and are smart about it. If you have no males in the family you could get away with 3 maybe but thats the only way. Or if all males are nowhere near your height.
Nah I dont give af about being my regular height in public. (Bothers me in my private life tho). But just trying to set a new normal for family right now. Big weight lifted off my shoulder knowing it worked. Cant wait to get home and take these things out of my damn shoes and know ill never need them again.
No i start in about 2 weeks. Im just wearing them to get family used to my new height. I dont live around my family so I wont see them for many months…after Im completely done. My family all wears shoes indoors so its easy.
Im expecting my recovery to take between 4-6 months until walking completely normal. Really hoping im on the shorter end at the 4 month mark, but this is ideal and it doesnt always work out that way. Becker said plan on 6 months.
Good luck with your journey. Will follow if you make a journal.
Idk what this means. Theres no way hes saying you can fully recover 12 weeks out from surgery.
Sure....but theres a difference between walking without assist and not looking like you just got hit by a car. At 12 weeks I cant imagine you look normal.
