Re: When to exercise again after surgery?

[Guest guest]

Thanks for the heads up, Aileen. I'll definitely not push myself too

hard. I doubt that I'll be able to start running right away after

not being able to exercise for almost a month now! So for now I'll

continue with walking and some light weight-lifting. I'll gradually

work my way back up to jogging and hopefully, running in a couple of

months!
