Hi all,

I am planning on getting my surgery maybe in 2022. I can't leave my country atm due to COVID and at the same time I am saving money.
I was thinking about wearing soles before the surgery. A quick background, I just moved to another country for my work and I could say I am starting fresh, most of the friends I made in the past years went back home due to COVID, so everyone would just know me with the new height.

I think it might be good so everyone I know won't ask me how I magically increased my size. Additionally, I work from home most of the days so it would not even be a shock to my co-workers.

Has anyone done this? I was trying to think about some drawbacks but can't find any, other than someone discovering me wearing soles and mocking me or something, which honestly I would not care.

Haha that is fun.
I did wear my lifts yesterday, as Scarface said, they are quite uncomfortable, and I should go for elevator shoes.
The insoles I am using give me about 3~4 cm. and I can notice the difference, I do feel them a bit fake, the sensation overall is new.
I did realized that, if I go for LL, I should gain some weight on my upperbody, so it is gave me some perspective on what I should work before the surgery.
I did like how I looked so it encouraged me to go for this surgery, I am aiming to get 7cm on the femurs, but this will depend on the doctor and how my body reacts.

If I had to give a summary on the negatives:
- I want to do the surgery more now.
- They are uncomfortable.
- I get some weird feeling that it is not my height.
