I tore my meniscus early March, and have been basically stuck on bed rest since then as I try to recover. I have about a month left before I can start trying some light exercise (short walks, light yoga). I've lost a lot of muscle mass and gained a lot of fat, as all I do nowadays is lay in bed and eat. Although my knee is MUCH better than before, I still get discomfort when I walk more than 5min, squat, or even have equal weight distributed between both legs. The weight gain and loss of strength has put me in a terrible mood for the past few months, but I'm getting excited to start moving around again in 4 weeks. I've been trying to move around as often as I can, and get back in bed before I reach my knee's kinit.

Any advice on recovering some fitness while I'm laying in bed waiting for the next month?
