Done waiting

I decided last week that I was done waiting around. I can't have surgery until January, but I can't just sit and pack on the weight anymore either. I was watching tv and ran across the infomercial for Shaun T's Insanity workouts and I took the bait. I ordered it and have just started doing the workouts. I'm in day 3 and I'm sore but I have more energy than I've had in a while. The workouts kick my butt and to begin with I was nervous about my knee, but I can do all of the cardio stuff, at least as far as my knee is concerned. I workout in my livingroom, so it's a very level stable surface. I was using my brace, but today I did the entire dvd without it and it didn't kill me. I'm hoping to drop some weight and put back on some of the muscle I've lost since my injury. I want to get back down to a better weight and lose some body fat. This program is 60 days, so I'll finish just before surgery. My only complaint is that during some of the exercises my arches and the balls of my feet burn like crazy and I have to stop.
