I just had surgery on my foot and I cant walk or use my foot yet. I’m going on vacation in 3 weeks and need to tone up and lose weight before I go. Any SAFE suggestions? Aerobics are OUT of the question.

Do situps and not just the straight up and down ones because although they will help they wont do it all. You also should do sit ups to your sides to get the muscles running diagonal through your tummy. Lift weights for your arms, repition is more important than how heavy they are if you’re just trying to tone your body.

Lie down and pretend like your riding a bycicle. Do scissors (where you lie down and lift one leg up in the air over and over) And that person that told you to run clearly didnt read your question because if you cant walk, you cant run. Other than that, follow what the other people said about dieting. But just so you know, if you lose 15lbs in a week or two, you lost water weight, which is totally useless to you because you’ll only put it back on and be disappointed (also, I heard that water weight doesn’t show, so if thats true, then losing 15lbs in water weight wont make you look any better) just eat right.

And you do need some meat because without iron and protien, you aren’t going to do your body much good. Oh, and its total B*S that diet drinks wont make you gain weight, they will! Just because they don’t have sugar doesn’t mean you can still drink them! and FYI, all carbinated drinks are bad for your health. Good luck!
