Hello:

This new website is really THE BOMB!!  I turned 50 this year and I feel so good!!  My total knee replacement is improving day by day and I can't wait to get back to my water aerobics class.  

I am 3 1/2 year post op and can eat almost ANYTHING!!  I still have problems with sweets but can eat them in small amounts. 

I'm not making any New Year's resolutions but I am cleaning out my refrigerator, freezer and cabinets and replacing bad items with good ones.  My husband's LDL cholesterol is not good and we both need to get on a better eating program and also exercise.  I'm trying to encourage him to start exercising which will help his cholesterol.  He is also a smoker which is not helping.

Anyways, I have had NO problems with my surgery at all!!  I'm thankful that I had it.  Even though I'm 190, I'm not 279 where I was before surgery.  I'm active and feel pretty good although I know getting of 20 more pound would be even better.

I don't think I look healthy at 145 and 170 is really a good weight for me as I don't even look like I weigh 190 lbs.

I will try and post more for the newcomers to the site as I'm sure, like I was, you are anxious and excited about having your surgery.  

BEST WISHES TO YOU ALL AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
