A day flavored with a mix of success and disappointment.
The good news is that I can now use the upright bike instead of the recumbent bike. I am also using the elliptical for 10 minutes instead of 7 on Friday.
I am getting good at doing my squats and started to work on laterals with a resistance band above my knees.
All the other exercises are also easier to accomplish.
I spent the whole day away from home and did great compared to the way I felt only two weeks ago. I even scouted shops for my daughter who needs shoes and accessories for prom.
The disappointing news is that my flexion is 118 instead of the 120 I was shooting for.
I still limp a little due to the extension of my knee but also to the fact that I still put more weight on my right knee.
One week away from seeing Dr. Simonian so this is a week of goals even more crucial than before: improve my gait and work like crazy on the flexion and extension on this darned left knee.
