post-bladder surgery and excercise question

Hi everyone,
Just thought I would ask all the experts here for some advice. I am scheduled to have a bladder repair surgery on the 25th of June. It is supposed to be a day procedure with no heavy lifting for 4-6 weeks post-surgery. I think I am going to go nuts without my workouts. Just wondering what you all thought of walking starting 1-2 weeks after and maybe doing the Turbo Barre or floor work. Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated I hate to lose my current fitness. BTW I am used to working out 5-6 days a week for at least on hour with weights and I just finished a 10 k race a week ago. Thanks everyone!

Michelle, you might be able to get away with yoga but not any strength training. That could hurt you. You will feel really raw and probably won't want to. Don't force it.
