Victoria -- It sounds like you may have been in much better shape prior to your lap than I was. You may be able to get back to it more quickly than I was able to. I'd been struggling about 3 years with a hip/back problem and was therefore not in the best shape when I had surgery.

Wishing you the best! Kim
