Hi , on my blog I also told you that I am trying to lose 25 pounds and need exercise ( 4 ft of snow outside and COLD ) , after a heart attack from which I seem to be recovered. I have sent for a DVD to dance with and hope to do well until I can walk outdoors .Are any of my Fitness pals in recovery from Heart problems ? I am to get a stress test soon , but want to do something now !

    Leslie Sansone makes walk-at-home DVDs that you might find interesting.

    Do you have access to a treadmill? Walking at a slight incline is a good light workout that should be okay.

    Just be sure to check with your doctor and get cleared for exercise before doing anything beyond just normal daily activity.
