About 2 weeks ago I injured my knees while doing insanity. I am seeing a specialist next week to see the if I strain or tore something.

Is there anything I can do to continue losing weight while my injury heals? I don't want this to slow down my weight loss.

    Stay within your calories. I think of exercise as bonus calories lost, but I'll lose weigh if I stick with my daily calorie goal even if I don't exercise. Many people have said you can't out-exercise a bad diet, so make the diet good in the meanwhile until you can exercise again. Good luck!

    Swim! Lane swimming is fantastic for cardio with an injury. Also, do weights and upper body exercises to help maintain muscle.
