Post Getting in Shape?

Hi Terry

How did you get in shape prior to surgery with pain? Were you on pain meds, or just will power.
I am trying to lose 20 + lbs. Ride a stationary bike, walk on tread mill, lift some weights arms and legs no back stuff.
I was a very active athlete maybe this is why I have such a bad spine?
If I do to much well the pain

What do you think

Thanks

Gil
