How to treat swollen feet during pregnancy?

So my ankles have swelled up a little bit because I just started a new full time job and I’m on my feet ALL day. I can’t afford a good pair or sneaks until my first paycheck.. so my ankles are a little swollen. I also eat a little too much salt (bash me if you want but buffalo chicken from subway & mashed potatoes and gravy are my cravings) and I wanna know what I should do to get the swelling to calm down a little? It’s not crazy bad, I just don’t think they should be swollen.. I’ve tried elevating them. I’m 17 weeks pregnant & I KNOW I should see a dr blah blah bc the chance of preeclampsia.. I’m completely positive it’s just from working and not being used to it, and I’ve checked my BP but I’m going to the doctor tomorrow to make sure of it for the baby’s sake. It’s also not my feet, just my ankles.
