What I was told I'd do:
- 2 weeks of bedrest
- 2 weeks of limited activity
- 2 weeks of moderate activity + physical therapy
- 6-8 weeks post-op begin bearing weight
- 3-4 months ditch crutches for cane
- 4-6 months ditch cane
- 6-12 months regain normal activity: walking, running, climbing
What I said I'd do:

Tomorrow marks 3 weeks post-op. I think I'll celebrate by standing. Take that!
