13 Days Post Op and Looking to start exercising

Hi Everyone, I am 13 weeks post op. At my last check in a week ago I was 293 lbs (down 16 lbs) and my goal is to be 160-170 lbs. My doctors agree this is a health weight for me at 5'8. I am looking to start working out and weight training as soon as the doctor says okay. I am noticing that I am getting softer in the areas I was once hard from muscle/fat. I have weight trained off and on for the last ten years. I am thinking of following the Body for Life Exercise plan mixed with a workout plan my husband is following. Any suggestions for starting out? Any exercises that work at toning the mid section and bottom?

Yep.. BFL is easy to follow and they have a good website with animations etc at http://www.bodyforlife.com Follow the suggestions there and work all your muscles. Don't worry about any one specific area - work full body and the rest will fall into place. Make sure to get the cardio in as well.
