hi hi !!

Looking for some similiar friends!

I'm 29 - 5'8 and recovering from knee surgery - a cartilage allograft & osteotomy ie. 2 screws in my tibia :)
I started MFP in April at 2 months post op
So far dropped 15 lbs in 3 months and working to drop another 15lbs to get to 145 lbs

My cardio is limited for the next few months- Right now to get my HR up I bike like a crazy person, and do upper body wts. No jumping, running, hopping (weep weep!)

If you have similar goals - (even with good knees! ) friend me! I check MFP a few times a day, and workout 5x a week.

Looking for more stories on my dash !

    lol at you request and I can't believe that I almost fit it :P

    5'7", 36 and serious knee issues here! I take my meds by intervenous to reduce flare-ups and swelling. I have poly-lupic-arthritis but it doesn't get the better of me. Gratefully I take a nice cocktail of meds that keep everything fairly well controlled. I am currently cycling for calorie burn and looking to lose another 20 pounds, or so ;)

    Feel free to add me.
