These are the shoes that I bought for myself this winter. They fitted my feet well and got a tick for most of the features I needed to look for in a shoe, according to Harry the podiatrist. When looking for shoes for yourself, it's best to have your feet measured and fitted correctly. A sports store such as Athletes Foot or The Foot Locker can do this for you. Some stores will allow you to take the shoes away with you and walk around indoors with them (and take them to a podiatrist for a second opinion), and return them if they are not completely right for your feet. The right fit for your feet is the single most important thing to look for in a shoe.

What our readers say...
"Dear Dr Amanda, I heard your interview on the Margaret Throsby show late last year (2008) and I was convinced that you had finally uncovered the secret. However, it has been so slow a process for me that I have wondered if I were the exception that proves the rule. I realized that I often ate when not hungry and did not get enough steps in my days. I have grown to listen to and trust by body, and do my best with the steps, working on an average for a week. In the five months since November I have lost 2 kilograms and I believe that these will stay off. I believe I need to lose about 8 kilos. But as I put the weight on in small 1/4 kilo increments, this must be the healthy way take it off. I am 56 and thought that perhaps the middle age spread was my destiny, as I believed that I ate well and went to the gym regularly but without losing anything. I have recommended your method, book and website to many even though I was a little concerned that I was not actually losing. I work as an academic, so value both the research and evidence based approach, and the guilt free philosophy. Well done! And thank you. "
