Progress

Progress has been made be it ever so slow. I have been able to walk for 30 minutes everyday for two weeks. Today I was able to hop on the trainer and ride my bike for 30 minutes. I know it is not running but I am on my way. I even enjoyed the trainer because I could watch an episode from the first season of "House".

I still have pain everyday but I am able to manage it with Advil. I had my physical last week and my doctor agreed with the sports medicine physcian that I should see an orthopedic surgeon. I probably will but for now I feel that since I am making some progress let's just keep going and see how far I can make it.

I am also on a diet. I have lost some weight and I think that is why my knee pain is more tolerable. I need to do some simple quad strengthing exercises and will probably work this in next week.

I know it is best to move slowly and this time I am going to keep up the snail pace. Even though it's hard it is best for now.
