    You are doing great. You are only three days post op! Doing any walking is good. Don't put so much pressure on yourself, you just need to focus on healing right now

    I agree. Just moving around periodically is fine.

Walking is one of those magical things -- a little becomes a lot very fast.

I think you're doing great! Once you're up to it, and want to try more, in order to get out of the heat go to one of the malls.....there's plenty of indoor walking available there and you can check out some of the cute clothes you'll be able to wear in no time!!! Let your body tell you what's "enough"...
