struggling

[Anahita_x]

need some advice guys, iv damaged my ankle, torn a ligament and sprained it, I did it last thursday and its still swollen, bruised and painful when i walk on it for more than a few mins. I cant drive as i havent got the movement in my ankle to do so, im off work and literally housebound and as you can all probably guess where this is going.. im boredom eating. I ate a whopping 50pps yesterday, for no reason what so ever. Im living alone aswell, my boyfriend came down from work at the weekend (he works away) and i was fine but now hes gone and i have nothing to do except put my feet up I just keep eating!!! any suggestions??!! xx

Try eating low pp things ? Sugar free jelly etc .... Not much else u can do

Hi. Sorry to hear that. You could google chair exercise ... its aimed at exercise for those in wheelchairs and the elderly but as you cant use your ankle itll work other parts eg arms, etc. Should give you a few more points to play with.

I guess to avoid boredom eating youve just gotta find stuff to keep busy ... write a blog, make a recipie, get friends to come over, etc ... anything to distract. Easier said than done I know. Lol

Good for you Anahita. Swimming is excellent.
Keep plenty of druit in stock..grapes are good for picking at and plenty of raw carrot to munch on.
