Update

Well hello my lovelies! Update on me. Well....I havent lost any weight since April 18th...but since my allergic reaction I had stopped taking the pills. I started back up yesterday while I am down here in Chicago. Which.....Yesterday I was going to get myself and a co worker lunch well instead of going thru the drive thru I got out of my car to walk to the building and go in. Easier with 2 seperate orders. Anyways I decided to go around a parked car and walk on the curb to the sidewalk...well i am inbetween the car and a tree bush like thing I lose my balance and I try to catch myself only to land on my ankle and it cracking so loud I could have sworn the thing was broke. Now see I twist my ankle once a month due to it being so week...I usually twist it really bad it swells but I can ge up and walk. This time...I havent walked since I got out tha car yesterday afternoon. And ofcourse I sitting on the sidewalk not crying....yes its painful but sometime when it comes to injuries like that I have a high pain tolerance. But I did shed some tears because well A. I cant call my parents to come get me....IM IN ILLINOIS with NOONE! So I was frustrated as hell. Luckily I had that coworker at the office he came and got me. Well I was like ok I can move my toes and what not its not broken but let me tell you my ankle is HUGE!!!! Well...I finally went to the doc or after hours clinic whatever just for Xrays which were not needed.....its is only a really bad sprain I have an air cast on it and I still cant walk...I force myself to drive...I hate being helpless and I NEVER ask for help. But yea I came into  work this morning to find a voluntarily quit form from the general manager in illinois...he screwed us up and left....EVERYTHING is now on my shoulders...I cant do it I am stressing out to the max...this is WAY too much for a 22 year old. All I do is cry because I am too stressed out over this job right now...but it pays so well and I keep going back and forth is it really worth it? I dunno but yea Yesterday I didnt eat...today I ate half of my salad and half of my wrap from a restaurant. But I believe there will be weigt loss when I come home for one WHOLE day and have to come back to illinois again....but because as a teen i NEVER realized how much of a work out crutches are!!!!!! My abs...my shoulders and my left leg!!!! OMG! lol. SO i was all worried cuz Im like great I dont get to work out at all....crutches are totally taking care of that! SO I should be able to walk by friday I am hoping....but yea...I will make the memorial challenge!!! I HAVE to....and I will be going on vacation still in July no one will stop me....not my job...no. Ugh so much stress I just want out....but I cant. SIgh I hope everyone is doing just wonderful!!!!!

Oh hon.. it's just breaking my heart to read this post.  I wish I could come and take it all away from you so you can rest. This is a lot of responsibility and you are handling it like a trooper, but to do it while trying to heal is way too much for anyone, nevermind a 22 year old. I'll be praying for your peace and comfort. Get well soon, sweetie. Lori

Crutches SUCK! And ankles take forever to get better.  Krista, you can do this. It is hard and very distracting with pain and stress, for sure.   Do your best, and like that song says, know when to fold 'em, but, also b open to the idea that maybe this could really be a break in disguise for you! Just breathe, do your work - and who knows who is looking at you to take a bigger lead. You are so young and have the world at your feet, so this job is not the ned of the line by any means. But for now, make the best of it. We are cheering for you! As for July, you will be together by then!  Hang in there, luv!!!!!!

Krista! I'm so sorry to hear about your injury! Are you permanently away from home or is this a temporary move to IL?? Take it easy and I hope you start feeling better soon.

 

OUCH!  Sounds painful.  Hope you get the rest you need. Try not to get too stressed or ahead of yourself, one day at a time!  It's all you can do, and it will help you not stress as much.  One day at a time, one project at a time. Hope you start feeling better sooN!

You do have a lot going on. But you know what..you are going to be fine..like said before..you are handling it like a trooper.. I sure have missed seeing you on the boards..you seem to always be happy so it stinks to see you down.  Hang in there..I am sure you keep looking forward to that vacation more and more everyday.
