On Tuesday, I went to see my orthopedic surgeon for another cortisone injection for arthritis in my right knee. He decided to take some xrays to see how bad it’s become. It’s bad!! So bad that I need a replacement. I decided to bite the bullet and schedule the surgery. I will have the procedure done on June 21st.
I’ve lost about 20 pounds this year, and I know that will help my recovery. Still, I want to do as much as I can in the next 17 days to be in better physical shape. I plan to eat lots of fruits and veggies each day, get as much walking in as possible, and do some strength training.
Starting tomorrow, I will write a post each day about what I’ve accomplished in my preparation for this surgery.
Wish me luck!
