What can I do?

[readyforchange101013 15]

I am a week and a half post-op and I want to start exercising. The only instructions I have from my surgeon is no heavy lifting for 6 weeks. He told me to do things as I felt like it. So what are some good work outs in the beginning?

walking....lots of walking...Give your body time to heal before you go full tilt into exercising...K

About how much walking in a day did you do?

Do what you an Havel. Everyone is different. Start with 15 minutes and if you can go further with ease....then do it. This whole process is about getting in touch with our bodies. Listening to ourselves. It's new for us. We've stuffed our feelings with food for years, most of us anyway.
