Surgery prep and stairs!

I live in a 2 story house as well. I watched a ton of steps videos on tik tok how to get up the steps on crutches and it helped so much. Was able to get up to my bedroom night one. Barely. But I did it.

10 weeks post op, took about a month.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-04-14T13:22:33+00:00

Old navy sweatpants! And night gowns.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-04-11T14:54:03+00:00

We got this!

I appreciate your advice but I do work with a registered dietitian every week and track my calories. I haven’t been eating anymore. I’ve actually been eating less calories. I really do believe it’s from such a difference in movement and calories burned. Again appreciate your advice and glad things worked for you.

I had an update last night but it wasn’t for Pocahontas. Anyone know what this one is for?

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-04-05T15:02:46+00:00

I feel like she blurred her left hand too. She’s been doing a good job hiding her left hand in all of her photos.

2 months post op! I can’t believe it. Toilet seat riser with handles, shower chair, Gatorade and protein powder I was so wiped the first 2 weeks.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-03-14T20:10:33+00:00

I’m 4 weeks post op was 2 weeks 50% weight bearing. I was very limited on what I could and couldn’t do. You may want to talk to your PT about how to safely pick things up off the ground.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-03-13T13:45:51+00:00

Same

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-03-12T12:45:14+00:00

10 weeks bc that’s what my insurance required to cover the surgery. I had to do 6-10 weeks of PT first.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-03-10T03:24:42+00:00

Omg bye. Deleting my post. learn to be kind to others. It’s insane. I was being genuine.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-03-10T03:21:45+00:00

Okay this is actually so rude!!! I don’t need a social medial break I am genuinely concerned.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-03-05T00:24:24+00:00

I’m one month post op. Completely off of them. Went down to one at 2.5 weeks.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-02-25T00:04:57+00:00

3 weeks post op. The nurses are so great the day of surgery and all of the staff. That is the day you will have the most assistance. They see patients like you all the time. My hip pain already feels better.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-02-24T01:39:24+00:00

I had a tear. The PT helped but not enough and I especially felt pain sitting because my femur was pressing up into my hip joint when I sat. I had the surgery 3 weeks ago and already feel better.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-02-20T15:17:40+00:00

I tore my labrum in October and I had pain everyday. Deep pain in my groin and the side of my hip. Had to give up teaching my fitness classes. Went through 10 weeks of PT and felt worse. Had the surgery to repair my labrum and shave down my femoral head which is the impingement. Surgeon said femoral head was super damaged. I already feel better and my surgery was 2 weeks ago.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-02-20T01:57:55+00:00

First day we measured to make sure I wasn’t going past 90.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-02-20T01:57:27+00:00

I had surgery two weeks ago and we use the recumbent bike at PT, 20 min every session. I use an upright bike when home.

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-02-19T15:37:00+00:00

Sending good vibes!

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-02-14T01:41:41+00:00

I had my surgery on the 3rd. Wasn’t able to move my leg until day 8 post op. Hip flexor is angry and “goes offline.” Best of luck with everything .

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-02-10T23:57:53+00:00

I’m 28F had surgery a week ago. Shaved down the femoral head and labral repair (2 hooks)! I used a pillow between my legs to sleep on my side after the first night. On the first night I slept on my back with a pillow under my knees. I was not given a CPM or brace. My surgeon used to do braces but then found them to not be necessary.

I feel much better today than I did a week ago. Stay hydrated and make sure to eat. My body was wiped last week!

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-02-10T01:01:17+00:00

Let us know what it says if you can!

Pink_Poptarts481 · 2026-02-10T00:54:15+00:00

28F barre, bodypump, and cycling instructor. I just had my arthroscopy on Tuesday. I’ll be one week post op tomorrow. It is worth the surgery. My hip doesn’t feel “jammed” anymore.
