Guest guest Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 Hey Joan.... I was happy with the weight loss too....but eventually, most of it went back on. LOL Were you able to keep it off? If so....good for you! I have no will power....lol. Pat in Pennsylvania Bilateral TKR August 2010 Total knee replacement Good morning..my name is lynne and I am from Michigan. I am having a total knee replacement done on my left knee on Monday. Believe me it can't happen soon enough. I have been getting everything ready and all this running around has caused my knees to really get very painful. Once we get the left one back I will have the right one done. I have severe arthritis in almost all of my joints and had a shoulder replacement done 2 years ago, I can't raise my arm very high but there is no pain and that is a blessing. I had nerve damage before my surgery and did months of pt after but I have adapted. I would love to hear from anyone that has had knee replacement done. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Guest guest Posted July 23, 2011 Report Share Posted July 23, 2011 Hi Pat, As a matter of fact, I have. Prior to the TKR we cut out all bread, pasta, rice and white potato. We have gone a bit back to bread, but still have meat/fish and 2 veg for dinner. Now if only i could cut out the wine.......
