Fell down flight of stairs... yes I'm whining

[leo0704 48]

3 weeks post op and finally starting to feel "normal". Was just getting my energy back and had started working out on my elliptical when I just had to fall down a flight of steps! No breaks or fractures showing but my foot is so swollen they can't do an MRI to see if anything is torn. So now I'm in a boot with strict instructions to keep it elevated for one week when I have to go back to the orthopedic Doctor.

I can't even begin to tell you how frustrated I am!!!

Y'all got any chair exercises or any advice for me?

There are many chair excerise videos on amazon....google it first and do your research as to what you want to accomplish and find one to fit your level..I used them avlot in the beginning. Once I was able to move a little better as I lost weight I found something else to meet my level..

Sorry this happened but it might be a blessing in disguise. I did not exercise at all during my active weight loss period and I lost a massive amount of weight. The moment I started to work out regularly the weight loss stopped! Once I stopped working out ( my partner had plastics) I began to lose again!

Take care of your foot and rest.
