Quote from: rock112 on November 20, 2016, 08:09:39 PMHow flexible / fit were you before LL? Were you athletic? Did you train / exercise to prepare for your surgery?
I was fairly flexible nothing too impressive but I could touch my toes and stuff like that.
Before LL I had been training 5 days a week at the gym for the past 3 years. I'd been dieting for about 2 years I would meal prep my lunches. Before LL I was at 8% 160lb 168cm in terms of being physically prepared for this I couldn't have been more ready. The only thing I changed when I found out I wanted to do this surgery and implement stretching exercises more frequently post workout:
3 inches external tibia Dr.Amar Sarin

Are you doing LON
Update:
I'm walking with a walker around my house now, pain has gone down a lot when putting pressure on my legs. Knee bending is almost all gone same with ballerina. Ankle mobility is coming back. My legs strength is also coming back but I do still have to take it easy.
Consolidation day 31:
Yesterday I stood up with my crutches but didn't feel balanced enough to walk, today I stood up and started step by step. I ended up walking around my kitchen for 4-5 hours.
I still have a little bit of knee pain the more I walk the better it gets, I still have a little minor ballerina but not when I'm standing when I walk.
My knee bending is gone, no xlegs thankfully. I don't get pains in my bone anymore I'm going to go for an X-ray in a couple weeks to see how it's healing. My ankles ROM is coming back obviously still needs work but have made very good progress.
I will post some pictures tonight

Great news, keep it up. Try to walk more and more to flow the blood. waiting your Xray
Sorry i haven't been consistent with the forum since I've been home life has gotten exponentially better and I forget all the time.
Anyways quick update: started walking unassisted Monday as well as started hitting the gym again on Monday. Went for X-rays and my callus touches (thank god). They also determined that my foot/ankle/tibia were all aligned.
Video of walking please? 
hiiii Morissette, can you please post your walking video ?
