Summer56 any type of repetitive movement over a period of time will increase your heart rate which is beneficial. Best thing to is to speak to a physiotherapist to help you identify the best exercises as well as what your target heart rate should be. Eventually working your way up to walking

I agree with MontrockGirl. You can also try both leg lifts and working out with weights while siting, but as always it is important to check with your doctor to avoid injuries.

Maybe the elastic bands with stretches and bending.

Google youtube seated exercise. These work well for Seniors, people recovering from injuries and mobility issues. Get it approved by your Dr. Start seated on a bed and work up to a chair.

A whole series of seated workouts!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
