When can I start running?

How long after (post op) did you start to jog? My dr said about two months. What did you do?

about that amount of time. Basically it was to heal up inside, the bouncing on the pavement caused a little pain around the incision area. I think I waited about a month but not more than six weeks. I walked on the treadmill a lot in the mean time.

I stuck in a stall I think! I don't what I'm doing wrong. I like to run so I'm eager to be able to start running.

Stalls are typical I stall for 2/3 weeks at a time

Then lose 5-10 lbs in a week

Thanks so much!! That's encouraging:)

4 weeks jogging lightly on low impact treadmill, no pain and Dr. said it was good to go so long as there wasn't any pain that came up.
