You look great! Congrats on running the marathon & getting a medal! Thanks for sharing your story. I'm a newbie right along with you, hopefully we'll both stick around & make it to vet status.

No one surgery is better than the other, what works for one may not work for another. T-Rebel

Honestly and truly - I am not a runner (the years of obesity ruined my knee cartilage) but the most truly successful "life changed" post op I know is a devoted runner. She works with a trainer, has done the Philadelphia Marathon, and now teaches spin.

And if I could change one thing (well, aside from world peace maybe) - I'd wish to be an addictive runner. Because it can make ALL the difference in your maintenance and lifestyle - for life!

You look fantastic of course, and have EVERY reason to celebrate this milestone in more ways than one!
