I just recently had surgery on my foot and am on bed rest for another two weeks. After that, I'll be on crutches for another six, and won't be cleared for running or any exercise like that for three months. I have no idea how to lose weight when I'm only allowed to lay here with a foot I can hardly move! Any advice?

    Why would you try to lose weight while healing from surgery? Isn't properly healing more important?

    I had a broken leg and tore ligaments around my ankle late last year, was off my feet for 12 weeks. Seated shadow boxing might be the best you can do. There are a few web sites that have more exercises you can do while seated. Also see if you can do sit ups while lying in bed.
