@donaghec I use braces to support my balance. My calf muscles didnt develop, I will always have to use them .I dont use them at home though because I can still walk but If I dont use them when I go out, I will get tired. thanks for watching :)
Hey. So I am totally commenting on this like 2 years after you posted it...lol...My friends LOVE going to the beach during the summer. I don't mind it, but find it hard for me to walk in the sand. Usually I wear my shoes and braces until we set our beach towels down and then I take them off. I can walk without the braces, just not very well. Getting past the wake in the ocean is a B*TCH...lol...
@Eshrimpski I love the beach as well and I am not extremely self conscious like I was 2 yrs ago...my husband has a lot to do with it and I am happy that he helped me get over the fear of ppl looking at my feet..it feel soooo much better being free than wondering who is staring ;) anyways, I do hate walking in the ocean.. my lower legs are not strong enough to walk over a wave LOL I have to grab my hubbys hand really.
I know how u feel as far as being self conscious. Im Self Conscious about showing my stomach because when i was in 6th & 7th grade i found out that i had nickel allergy and the buttons on my jeans gave me a horrible rash that didnt fully go away until my sophmore year in high school. Im a senior now but there's still a dark mark and i know im young but it sux to be self conscious about something everyone else has no problem with showing off, ya know? Well thanx 4 sharing ur story! i like ur hair
I like your honesty and how you are not ashame to talk about your insecurities. That's is a wonderful thing. It's always good to let out what's inside; Less weight to carry around( mentally&spiritually)
I'm self conscious at times about the way I talk. I've been accused of not "sounding black" so sometimes when I'm talking round other black people, I get a little self conscious. I just thought I'd share that. lol.
Cool to hear that you have overcome the issue of showing your feet. I am sorry to hear about the burning though, I hope you heal up quick. Better luck next time and you should definatly go into the water as well when you are at the beach, lol!
i know about being self conscious,i'm a short dude with very small feet and sometimes i get embarrassed by it so you're not the only one
