Asked By:6826anon in Pittsburgh, PA

Had lipo to trunk and thighs yesterday. Feeling pretty good today, even without pain medication. Really want to get on the elliptical at a slow pace. Is this ok as long as I take it easy? Prior to the surgery, I worked out 90 minutes a day/6days a week. In very good shape.
