Oh noooo that really stinks. Hoping for the best outcome for you.  

#progressnotperfection 👍💪💪💪 

How long have you been doing these workouts? 

Bone on bone sounds like the most painful thing ever. From workouts, do you think, like repetitive movement injuries? Or just too much jarring impact with too much weight on your frame? 

@otb it does but this won’t stop me. I like what you improved in your gym room. Glad your kids like it too. They’re definitely inspired by you and living your best. Keep it up 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽💪🏽 

@Moo 🐮 yes yes yaw 🤠 

@Sup Well…… I started running two years ago, did the five K race and was planned to do a half marathon until I pulled my inner thigh muscle. Then I started HIIT training with weights mostly almost every day. These last 9-10 months I have been doing a variety of workouts i.e. yoga, stretching, zumba, zumba toning and weightlifting. Overall its genetics (predisposed to osteoporosis) long time sports player from elementary to post college playing volleyball and running. In adulthood plenty stair climbing, running and skipping. So over time lots of hard impact thinking it will strengthen my bones. But it was the opposite that happened. I am moving on and getting smart and safe about now. Sup you’re still my inspo for the six pack. I am going to get mines out from hiding. 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽 

@justbananas its genetics and working out with high intensity for years. Hopefully you will be safe with your workouts also. Looking forward to your goals.🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 

Ouch, that sounds painful. Are/were you a straddle split stretcher? I learned this summer that most of us aren't meant to do that and it grinds away your hips.  

Good luck—I know you will keep moving forward! 

PinayRN, I've been following you since I found FS in March. I just wanted to say hi and Thanks for sharing. I appreciate everything.  

Sorry you're in pain. I HATE those steroids. I have orthopedic issues too but not my hips. My neighborhood park has indoor and outdoor pools and has become my workout/rehab spot year round. It's very reasonably priced so you may be able to find one near you.  

congrats. feel better soon 

You sound like a fighter!!! Take good care. Sounds painful. 😓 

I’m a retired nurse, 65.. 42 years of nursing plus five as a tech have given me bone on bone both knees and a hip that also needs to be replaced. I have 32 pounds to go to reach surgical goal of 39 BMI. It’s been such a struggle. ImMy goal is to continue after that and go back to jumping waves at the beach till My forever. Good luck to you !!! ❤️ 

Take care!
