My husband has had 3 knee surgeries, so I can understand your situation. We do have an elliptical, and he uses it painlessly (albeit infrequently) :rolleyes: .

Another suggestion: can you comfortably march in place? If so, try marching in place while watching tv (or certain DVDs wink ). You will be able to speed up your heart rate for an extended period of time while mindlessly distracting yourself. I do this when the weather is bad, or when I just want to watch something without feeling guilty. You'd be surprised how fast time can pass when you're engrossed in a show. P.S. I get my daily dose of LnC by watching while on the elliptical...is there any better motivation than Superman? dance


"Every woman in love thinks their man looks like Superman!" I sure think so!
