Finally some progress

For the first time today I had NO pain in the knee. None. After a full week of doing absolutely nothing but the pt exercises. I went to orthopaedic yesterday and pt. Ortho believes that my "Q" angle like many other people is at a greater angle than most people which leads to the patellar tracking issues which has led to some tendonitis. He does not believe it is meniscus related however. Another good thing that came of the Ortho is that finally someone is sending me to get an MRI. Im trying to keep my excitement in check here and fighting going against the wishes of the pt and heading out for a run.

Meantime I've gained 6 pounds in the past month with the limited activity. Am doing good staying on the Zone all day then I get home and theres always something I shouldnt be eating. Only reason Im posting this is Im hoping the posting will help make me a little more accountable and keep me honest after dinners.

MRI and PT tomorrow. PT is going to take a look at my bike setup tomorrow....benefits of going to a therapist with an ironman in house. Hope its not too much trouble.
