I am just a month out from having ACL reconstruction surgery the beginning of January. Prior to the surgery I was working out daily on the Eliptical. PT says only to do the Eliptical 5-6 minutes per day. What are some other exercises that I may be able to do at home that will help me from putting on weight while I can't work out like I could before? I am watching what I eat, but I need some physical activity to feel better too. This is driving me nuts to sit around all day. I can't go outside as everything is a sheet of ice and the Doc warned to not slip and fall.
