Hi everyone. I have been searching these groups and message boards wondering if I am the oldest person to ever post on MFP. Gosh, wasn't that long ago when I was young. The years do fly by so quickly.

Had right hip replacement surgery in January. Before that, years before, both knees were replaced. Arthritis is not for sissies! Anyone else here with new parts?

    So nice to hear from both of you. Wow, what a weight loss you have both had. Congratulations. What was your inspiration?

    Connie - Your husband has some serious surgery coming up and I wish him the very best. I have a son with Cystic Fibrosis and he will be facing a lung transplant in the future. So thankful these transplants are available.
