    You are doing great! Much better than my step-father at that same stage post-surgery. Keep it up, but don't overdo!

    Overdid it a bit last week, went from a five minute walk to a fifteen minute walk in one day, that caused a flare up that set me back about a week. So I'm trying to reel myself in a bit and go a little slower; the PT explained since they cut the heads off my femur and tibia the first 6-8 weeks are a big healing phase... in his words "marathon NOT sprint".

    But when we are used to moving, and fast, it is always hard to be on the "breaks". But no other options, really.

    So slow down...and you'll be top shape for summer!

    Trying to hold back is hard...but hang in there! Good to hear that you are feeling well enough that you do have to remember to hold back!

    It's been a month since I've done anything but PT or a doctors appointment, today we are going to meet some friends at our favorite Mexican place and be social, can't wait!
