I have 2 knee replacements and while I was waiting for surgery I did chair exercises and aqua-fit. There are many chair exercise videos on line. Also sparkpeople.com has a ton of videos. Wishing you the best.

Sad to hear your news...good luck...and wishing you well....many people post that they shed weight without exercise too....

[Ruski]

Thanks for your best wishes Portland princess,but l will miss the gymn and my walks😢

Bless you that's doesn't sound good. Hope you get that over and done with soon. I'm sure if you watch what you eat and perhaps do some chair exercises you will be able to do well.

That hardest thing is when you feel helpless and cannot do your usual routine. If you start planning for it now I'm sure you will be able to keep up your positive mind set.

Good luck
