Recovering from Knee Injuries

Hello everyone,
I am not new to MFP, but I am on a new journey, since I had some setbacks on my last journey.
I was very motivated to lose weight in April of last year, and one week into a great start, I tore my ACL and meniscus (playing rugby). 5 months later, I had lost a little bit of weight again, but had my ACL reconstruction surgery in August, and since then, I have put the weight back on again, and have hit my highest weight yet again.
I am hoping to lose 60 pounds, and change my lifestyle!
I started this weighing 215.0 lbs and hope to weigh 155 lbs.
I am 23, and a graduate student, and would love to have some friends to motivate me, and friends that I could look to for some support and advice...or just anyone that may be going through something similar, or also wants a motivating friend
.
Thanks!!
