I totally splurged and bought a pair of MBT shoes - you know the hideous curved shoes that we've all seen in the Bliss catalog? My boss suggested them for my hips because in her opinion if you look at the technology of the MBT's it totally makes sense. So I did my homework and if what I read is true, they really do make sense and will help with my hips, posture and HOPEFULLY (I'm crossing everything I can) with chub and cellulite. Surprisingly they are very light and extremely comfy and they're very easy to walk in. A few people I've told about my indulgence have asked for updates on whether or not they're doing their job, so I will definitley do that. I bought the plain white leather pair, although I'm posting the very cute ones w/orange.
So while they are ugly and hard to wear with most of my clothes without looking totally orthopedic, so far I have to give them a BIG thumbs up. They really do help with posture (it's hard to slouch when you don't really have a heel), and I can feel it alot in my calves and somewhat in my thighs. Admittedly I haven't been wearing them all day and I've only taken 2 big walks so far, but I do feel it a bit and I'm hoping I can motivate myself out for a daily walk. I'll keep you posted, but if you've ever even considered these my suggestion is to actually make the purchase, you'll be glad you did.
