Question:
What are some good exercise videos post op?

I'm still pre-op but should have a surgery date by the middle of next week and I was wondering what are some good exercise videos to have post op. I know that walking is basically the only thing you can do immediately post op but are there any videos for that? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated also..where to get them. Thank you so much!    — Rebekah A. (posted on August 28, 2002)

You might want to try Leslie Sansome's Walk Away the Pounds. She does a 1, 2 or 3 mile walk. Newly post-op the 1 mile was perfect...short and sweet. Now I have been able to do the 3 mile no problem for a while now. I really enjoy them. They are on QVC but I got mine at Sam's Club and I have seen them on ebay too. Good luck!!

I also like Leslie Sansome. And you can't forget Richard Simmons! I also got a learning dance steps tape - it's a little more fun!

I also have the Leslie Sansone walking tapes and think they are great. I overdid the 1 mile tape though and would just try to go at your own pace when you get home from the hospital.

I too have Leslie Sansone's Walk off the pounds..I started after I came home from the hospital..I am now proud to say I joined my local ladies gym today b/c I feel I am good enough post op (5 weeks and 44lbs. later) to start a regular work out...
