Comeback After Injury



OK, what do you guys reccomend for someone coming back from an injury? In
this case, I broke my right leg last November. Fractured both bones 3/4 way
through right below the knee, and slightly smooshed the top where it forms
the knee joint. My bones look good, and I am now walking with a cane, doing
some stairs.  They will take the external fixator off next month. So far,
they aren't sending me to physical therapy, because I have myself further
along than if they had sent me.  Becuase I am still "off", balance isn't
great yet.

Anyone have any experience with soemthing like this? What did you doto build
yourself back up? Also, I'm carrying a lot of extra weight, since I couldn't
do anything but sit on my rear for almost 4 months, even though I cut way
back on calories and fat.
