Injury, can't walk (vent)

I had been in the middle of a hot streak for weight loss. I've got a trip later this year and it was the perfect motivation to lose more weight, and I had been doing really good! I was walking consistently on my work breaks and swimming for exercise.

On Sunday, I fell down the stairs and tore my MCL in my knee. I feel like everything is ruined and I'm so frustrated. I'm not supposed to even TRY to stand/walk for another three weeks.

I know that most of weight loss is diet and I'm keeping my calories in check. But I also can't even measure my progress because I can't stand and so I can't weigh myself!

This is just so awful. Has anyone been through this?
