Hi all! My name is Stacy and I just got my surgery date - July 1st. I'm so excited to join you all on this amazing journey! I've been following this forum since I went to the informational session back on February. You have all been so very inspirational to me - answering questions and sharing info and personal stories. Thank you! I feel so hopeful for the first time in years! I want my energy back and I want to move without all this pain. Looking forward to learning more from each of you as I move forward. And congrats to all of you on all your successes - you strengthened this newbie's hope!!!

Congratulations!  Now if you haven't already, get yourself into the gym for both cardio and strength training.  Your body will thank you for having done so while you are healing post-surgery.

Thank you for advice about gym - I've been walking but I really need to get back to strength training. Shawna - I'm happy to meet you! We can support each other through this, for sure!

Congrats on your surgery date. When I go to the doctor in June I should get my surgery date also, they are saying July or maybe August. I am hoping for July as this has been a long journey getting here. I  started my journey in October 2012. I wish u the best. Keep posting so I will know kind of what to expect, I know each body is different but I have learned alot from reading these posts.

Hi Andrea - I officially start the liquid diet June 17th but I've started transitioning. I have been doing protein shakes for breakfast for the past few weeks and I've decided this week I will do protein shakes for 2 meals per day. It's pretty great to see a few of us with same surgery date - we can support each other through the tough parts and celebrate the victories as they come

Congratulation to all on your up coming surgery dates. Its exciting times. My knee pain went away two months after surgery.
