Still too much weight for post surgery. Be smart about your rehab.


I’ve lost 50 since surgery. Doc wants me to lose 15 more. I want to hit 250 but he said with my body fat % I’d probably get another injury if I lose too much more.

I was kinda built like a short Shaq but white. Little skinnier now. But I’d like to get to about 250 maybe.


Does a 5ft girl survive to tell the tale?

I'm sorry if I have offended, it has nothing to do with obesity or needing to lose weight, it's just simply too much weight for the stabilizing muscles around your knee post surgery. You need more time to rebuild in-between long days on your feet. Consider a MWF schedule for work?

No no no. I’m not offended. I’m big. I’m just telling you he said my body fat % on my arms and legs is low. He’s worried if I try to lose more there I might literally put too much strain on them. Basically my arms and legs are overworked.

My size is mostly due to the fact I’m a beer drinking food gobbling glutton.

It was actually suggested to get surgery to help with torso fat but man. I feel 1 million times better already. I think I can do it without.

A lot of 7 ft basketball players weight my weight or more. They are pro athletes. So if I can just bring it down a little more. Im sure I’ll get back on track.

At 35 years old my knee is just not recovering as fast as I wanted it to after surgery. I’m mobile but by mid work week(like today) the aching pain is just a lot. I feel 80 years old right now.

I soak it. I take my meds. Daily vitamins. Rest it when at home. But my recovery is just a hard one. Doctor said 6 months for full recovery but he cleared me to go back to work. Wonder if my doctor had no clue how much physical work walking/standing my job takes and miscalculated how soon I should have returned.


what I suggest is, go back to the doctor and tell him you are not recovering too well

You're so stuck on weight loss instead of strengthening your injury.
Good lucky guy
