You gotta get moving. I started water aerobics 3x's a week in September and along with my diet lost 20 lbs orior to my knee replacement surgery. This is also an exercise I can continue after my surgery. I attend at Kid's First Swim in Timonium! It is alot of fun and hardly feels like exercise! - Aileen
