Foot surgery tomorrow

I had my rny at the end of August 2012 and have already exceeded my goal. Overall I feel so much better but have been having constant foot pain with my increased exercise levels. So tomorrow I am having a Dwyer calcaneal osteotomy and a cotton medial osteotomy and fusion of three hammer toes that rub constantly on my shoes. I am not looking forward to the surgery but I need it to be able to be as active as I want and be pain free. If you think of me about 12:30 say a little prayer. I will have a cast for at least 4 weeks and unable to put weight on the foot as it heals. I think I might go through exercise withdrawal (Did I just say that?!)so I have found chair exercises and an arm ergometer to use to at least get my heart rate up. I'll let you know how I am doing when I can.
