Weight Related Injuries

Wasn´t quite sure where to post this, but was wondering if anyone else might have this problem.

I have had in the last 10 years probably 6-8 sprained ankles. In December I tore my Gastroc Muscle in my right calf, which was very painful. This evening my DH is sick, so I took him to an Urgent Care (tried 3, but all were closed! We have had a HUGE snow here). When we got back home, I stepped out of the car, stepped wrong on a mound of snow, and twisted my left ankle so hard it cracked, and I thought I was going to toss my cookies it hurt so badly.

Has anyone else experienced these types of injuries? Those who have lost weight, and did have these problems, did losing weight help?

It's embarrassing for me. Could sure use some feedback, and encouragement. I was just getting to the point where I could walk a mile again, and now this. GRRR.

Thanks Melinda

There is a great reduction in the forces of gravity upon our entire musculoskeletal system as we decrease our weight.

That's good to know, because there seems to be a LOT of gravity following me around!
