What type of exercises can I do?

I was banded on the 9th and I feel really good.  My instructions say that I can not do anything more strenuous than walk for four weeks.  I see all of the posts about exercising and going to the gym.  I have a Gazelle (kind of a cross country skiing machine) and my husband doesn't think I should do it.  What types of exercises do most people do postop?  I don't live where I can walk on my street and the gazelle would be the most convenient.  Thanks for any ideas!!!

Call your doctor and ask him. Why guess and screw something up at this point everyone is differant.
 

I did a lot of walking within a week of surgery, did a lot of painting on my deck and porch, things like that, just nothing strenuous. I would double check with the surgeon to make absolutely sure.
