Nancy O'Dell is almost ready to do the two-step again.
The Access Hollywood cohost is on the mend after having arthroscopic knee surgery Friday following an injury sustained while training for Dancing With the Stars.
"Well, surgery on my knee is done and over with and it went well! I am so happy as I am ready to start rehabbing my knee and get it back to normal!" the 42-year-old O'Dell writes on her Access blog.
"I was actually awake for the surgery and got to watch it on the monitor," she adds. "I didn't think I would like it as I can't even watch blood getting drawn. But because it was on a monitor and I never looked down at my actual knee, it was pretty cool."
O'Dell, who had been partnered with Tony Dovolani withdrew from the eighth cycle of DWTS before the first episode and was replaced by The Bachelor's Melissa Rycroft. O'Dell says she hopes to compete in a future season.
