Just when I was starting to feel better

[Joleine Sigler]

So I went to my first physical therapy appointment for my back yesterday, and the therapist gave me all sorts of exercises to do to strengthen my back so I could get back into exercising, etc.. She recommended getting a brace so I can still go on walks, etc without it causing issues.. I was so excited because I've been feeling better from the iron pills, etc..

And then last night, while I was making dinner, I fell down/off of the 1 stair that goes from our backdoor to our backyard.. and sprained my ankle pretty badly.

I won't be putting any weight or pressure on it for a couple of months now.

To say I'm pissed off would be an understatement :( 

Hopefully I can incorporate some ankle-care into my physical therapy now..

Just thought I'd update the group on why I won't be losing any weight any freaking time soon :(

Joleine,

 

I'm sorry to hear about your ankle injury, but don't get overly discouraged.  You could still do non-weight bearing exercises (sit-ups, hand weights, stretching, leg lifts, etc.).  Hang in there.  Things will get better.  Take care,

So sorry to hear of your accident.  Maybe God is telling you to take it easy right now with the early stages of your pregnancy.  Hope you are up and 'running' real soon.  There are various exercises that you can do while you are laid up with your ankle.

 

I know when I don't slow down and I should, someone upstairs makes me come to a complete stop.

LOL.  Sorry, Joleine.  I am so busy these days, that I only get brief chances to read my emails and I thought that you were preggers along with Becka.  Now, if it does happen that you find out that you are preggers, I cannot tell the future.  But, there is a reason that God made you slow down.

 

I have worked every day since June 23 at the school plus working at the farm cleaning it out, getting more antiques ready for the next auction.  I want the month of August off from the school.  If I do not slow down very soon, someone may be making me slow down.

 

And I have dropped another 2 lbs of those 7 lbs I gained back and only have 2 more to go.  They just love my body so much, they don't want to leave home.

Heh it's okay :) I could see how easy it would be to get confused with the other preggers out there :)

But nope, no pregnancy for me anytime soon!!

[Joleine Sigler]
