3rd times a CHARM!

READY! SET! GO! This last week, I had surgery for the third time on my knees. I have a tendency to tear my meniscus from all my running. In the past, they have just cut out the cartilage , but this time he stitched it back in and did a bit of drilling into the bone to save me from arthritis down the road 20 years from now. I will most likely still have arthritis, but not as bad. The recovery from sewing it back in is a lot longer, like 3-4 months, but better in the long run. I am forbidden to do my treadmill for 3 months and that really does kill me. In fact, the doctor called Josh after the surgery to tell him how things went and what I could and could not do and Josh just told him he was going to have to tell me himself that I couldn't run. I am addicted and it is a huge part of my daily life. Lets just hope I don't start gaining when my body goes into shock from my no cardio exercise. I will still lift weights and in a month start the bike, but I need to get heal...
