Just remember to be very careful when returning to normal exercise levels. Many people, including myself, experience relapses that can be quite severe if this is done too fast. I recommend buying a heart rate monitor and sticking to a constant pulse rate for a fixed amount of time.

By slowly increasing the heart rate over a period of a few month to normal exercise levels, the risk of a relapse is minimized. This is also known as the buffalo protocol and its one of the best ways to get back to normal exercise levels.

This is best carried out on a stationary exercise bike so as to minimize jolts to the brain.
