Fact of Fiction: I don’t need to measure my feet

sandle feet-538245_640You’re in a hurry- problem #1.  There is no shoe salesman available-problem #2 . You grab a pair of shoes, slip them on, they seem to feet and off you rush to the counter- problem #3. When was the last time you measured your foot? Can’t remember- problem.

As we age, our feet change to adapt to our changing bodies, i.e., weight gain. They tend to swell at the end of the day which explains why purchasing shoes at the end of the day is the best time to ensure you get a good fit. If you haven’t had your feet measured recently, you may be surprised to learn, they may have grown. If you can’t find a salesman to help you, grab the Brannock Device, (the metal contraption that measures your foot) and measure your foot yourself. The black and silver one is marked Men’s and the purplish silver one is marked Women’s.

The answer to this question is: FICTION

Enjoy the tutorial and make sure you measure BOTH feet. 🙂

She is an award winning author, the founder of The Jenkins Donelson Foundation, JDF, the creator annual National I LOVE My Feet Day!,and the Health and Wellness site found here, on Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest, entitled I LOVE My Feet DayS! Carolyn's interest in feet began in college when she met a young lady who was born without arms. The student used her feet as hands by writing and eating with them. Everyone on campus was very impressed with that students' ability to overcome adversity and the respect and awe she garnered was well deserved. Carolyn earned her Bachelor of Science degree in Education and never forgot the young lady. Carolyn learned about the importance of good foot care from her mother, who was a diabetic. After Carolyn experienced foot pain she visited a podiatrist and discovered she had fallen arches. Carolyn traced the cause back to wearing flip flops that didn't provide arch support. Years later, after two pinky toe breaks, Carolyn's appreciation and respect for feet deepened and she wrote an ode to feet. In the spring of 2015 a talented illustrator brought her poem to life and Carolyn published My Feet: An Ode, which celebrates the wonderful versatility our feet provide us throughout our lifetime. Publishing My Feet: An Ode led to annual recognition of good foot care and appreciation. It was also the impetus for the Good Foot Care movement. Carolyn believes our feet tell a story about our lives. She is passionate about promoting good foot care and she is quickly becoming the " Ambassador of Feet". She is a Foot & Shoe Consultant and refers countless people to podiatrists. Carolyn is also the author of the award winning laugh out loud children's series, The Family Adventures of Princess Ladybug and Princess Ladybird. The series focuses on young siblings who are raised in separate households. Carolyn wrote two ebooks to help consumers purchase footwear.
