Thank you all for your responses (I loved this: And that is that no one but you and your doctor sees the scale!), maybe I am overdoing it a bit with the diet too - I'll ease off. I was just so excited to see the numbers tumble I've lost sight of my real goal, which is to be stronger and look better... I definitely couldn't…

Hi, Thanks for the suggestions. I find cardio difficult except for the swimming, as even the rowing machine quickly tires out my leg and seems unbalanced... The program I am (sort of!) following at the moment contains all the excercies you mentioned, so I guess I am doing the right thing already. Just need to keep at it!…

Hi. Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately I do not use a prosthesis at the moment - thats part of the reason for the operation (fingers crossed!)! Also, the gym I have joined has no pool, although I do go once a week separately with my kids...

Spot on, and congratulations on the liberal use of emoticons!!! Definitely worth keeping these rules in mind...

Don't know if this post is still active, but I am, and I don't know where to start! Let me know if you've found anything useful! Cheers, Tazz
