I am 4 weeks, 4 days out from surgery and today I played tennis for the first time since before surgery.  Yes, I was a 268 pound competitive tennis player.  I never saw ANYONE on the court as big as I was.  But, before surgery, I was playing some of the best tennis of my life and had a great season!  I wasn't sure how I was going to play today, strength-wise, but I surprised myself and played very well!  The best part is that I didn't sweat profusely like I usually do and I got to balls I normally wouldn't be able to get to.  I'm excited to see how I play at my goal weight.  I have lost 31.5 pounds as of this morning and it's really made a difference already.  I'm feeling excited and happy today and just wanted to share . . .

Looks like getting enough exercise won't be a problem for you.
