Exercise
How long after surgery did everyone start to exercise? I bought a treadmill, I'm 3 weeks post op and feel good enough to give it a whirl.

I was walking up and down the hall at home etc after surgery, last night I did 15 minutes on the treadmill and that was enough for one night! Will give it another go after work today.

As Catw said, just listen to your body! You will know when you have had enough. No need to pu**** right away. Wait for your body to heal. I waited until last week to get my gym membership and I had my sugery on Nov 23rd. Granted I felt great days after my surgery and wanted to start right away but I let myself heal. I do not like the treadmill but love the elliptical so thats what I am doing. Good luck!
