I broke my leg last week. I've been struggling with weight loss for the last year, and one of the big issues with crutches is it's very hard to cook, very hard to leave the house, impossible to carry plates, and of course I'm very sedentary. I really want to use this time to slim down, but don't want to impact the rate at which I heal. I've signed up for grocery delivery and have ordered a range of healthy frozen meals that I can microwave, a lot of fruit and other healthy snacks, and I'm determined to at least not gain weight for the next six weeks.
Does anyone have any experience trying to manage their weight while on crutches? The main from the break and the surgery is too high to do any exercise right now but the physio has given me some exercises to do once the pain subsides and I can still work my upper body using free weights. Any life tips or hints for being on crutches in general would be appreciated. Feeling pretty bummed and helpless right now and trying to make the best of a bad situation.
