For me I've been walking for several months twice a day on a rocky, countryside dirt track road and managed to loose nearly 5 stone! I used to be 12 and a half and now I'm down to 8 and a half stone! Till one day I felt a sharp pain in my ankles..and this has been going on for months and recently seen a doctor and had an x ray. Now I'm just waiting for the app to discuss the results next week!
But my main problem is that apart from going swimming most days (which I don't really enjoy) I feel like for the most part I'm just sitting about in the house doing nothing and feel like I'm putting weight on and eating away..and wish I could go back out walking like I used to but I know I can't since it would make my feet even worse!..
Ugh, I can imagine that's frustrating! What about biking? Too much stress on your ankles? That could be a good solution to get out of the house like walking.

I've been thinking about cycling but I need to get round to purchasing a bike
I had my ankle appointment today and the good thing is I can go back out walking again but the bad thing is I have a small crack/fracture in my left ankle which means I need to wear a splint for so many months till that sorts it into place and for my right foot I'll need to have a minor op on my big toe to fuse it and after the 6weeks recovery I can go back out walking!
Was supposed to get an op as of Friday 15 May 2015 for my toe on my right foot but due to having a rash and my calcium level still a tad low, had to postpone it for a few months..
Got a splint for my left foot fracture that apparently has bone cyst and after wearing it I can tell a difference already that I dont feel any pain but I have to wear it for 3months..and have a scan every 8weeks.
I miss walking!
