How soon after surgery did everyone start working out and what did you start out doing? I'm only 1 1/2 weeks post op but as soon as I get the clear I want to get on the workout train!

I started light cardio at two weeks.. Slowly working up to 35 minutes on the elliptical. Now at 7 weeks doctor cleared me to lift weights (been doing light weights for 2 weeks) mostly lower body till now

I didn't feel up to moving much until about week 4. My only exercise now is walking, trying to work up to 5 miles a day.

I'm 1 week out and went for a 24 minute walk today. I pushed myself a little but not much. I feel fine and only a little weak.
