    Couch To 5 K Anyone?

    Just finished the program last week and started a new program to bridge into 10k's. The program works. Don't try to do more than the program prescribes or you'll find out about running injuries the hard way.

    4 Days Post Op - Help!

    I really had a hard time the first couple of weeks after surgery too. You just have to make sure you're getting your liquids in so you don't get dehydrated. I would sip on EAS protein shakes all day long and supplement that with water. Any liquid you take in counts toward your 64 oz per day. Measure everything so you know how much you are getting in. Remember 8 oz = 1 cup. Hang in there. It gets better really fast. I'm only 2 1/2 months post op and things are pretty much normal now. I have adapted to the changes and things are pretty easy considering.

    Couch To 5K -- Anyone Want To Join Me?

    After dealing with patellar tendinitis for the past month ( which kept me from running), I finally restarted c25k today with no knee pain. Sucked being unable to run, but it was sort of refreshing to deal with a "sports injury" again instead of general poor health.

    Caloric Intake

    I'm almost 2 months out and saw the nutritionist earlier today. She bumped my daily calorie intake up from 800 to no more than 1000. I was also told to limit "non veggie" carbs to 30 g a day. Of course I was given a list of approved veggies as well.

    Couch To 5K -- Anyone Want To Join Me?

    I'm 4 weeks post-op as of yesterday. I haven't commited to a 5k yet, but I'm on week 2 day 2 of c25k. I tried to do it over a year ago to loose weight when I was pushing 300 lbs and had knee problems. It's amazing how much easier it is now. Good luck!!
