    Hi Jess,
    I am in the same boat with you. I have had 5 surgeries on my right knee and I finally got it replaced last Feb and I am also under restrictions. My Dr. told me the less stress I have on my knee the longer it will last. So, with low impact exercises and watching what I eat, I am hoping to it going for 15 years.

    I have now turned to walking almost every day. With my busy schedule and a desk job, I am not able to get as many steps in as some people, but I try to walk at least 2 miles a day in the cold winters and 3-4 miles in the summer.

    Good luck to you and I will add you so we can support each other!!

    Take care!
