I've never been a big one to exercise so if there were a pill which would provide the same results, I'd be the first in line. Actually, I'd use my new knee to kick the ass of whoever was first in line.
Now that I've not been able to walk, let alone exercise, I find that I miss it. Oh, I'll deny I said it, but I can't wait until I can get out and about, walking to my mom's or to the grocery store or wherever I want.
I'm headed to the pool next week (the sound you'll hear will be me screaming as I try to stuff all my bits and pieces into the sausage casing I call a swimming suit) which will be sort of like exercise - - after all, I'll work up a sweat getting my suit on.
Even if there was a pill to take the place of exercise, it would never take the place of the joy of cramming myself into a tube of spandex and throwing myself into a hole filled with water. And skinny college girls.
