I am still rehabbing a Achilles tendon injury from last March that also resulted in nerve damage in my foot (Just my luck to get a freak injury!)

My best advice is to adjust your calorie intake. At the time of my injury I was able to pretty much eat whatever I wanted since I worked out so much. Well, after the injury I continued eating whatever I wanted and here I am 30lbs heavier. Also if you go to physical therapy, they are good at finding ways to work around an injury.

Hope this is helpful!

Thanks for the link!

I have another DVR suggestion, on the oxygen channel at 6am there is a show called Inhale, I swear by it! Its an hour long and you get a great workout!
