Advice on diet for rehab...

Hey,
I'm 16 years old, 5'9", 165 lbs. I'm a baseball player for my high school team and just went through Reconstructive surgery for my right elbow, better known as Tommy John Surgery, on 5/06/05. With extensive rehab and being in a half-hard cast for 10 days and a brace limiting my movement for about 8 weeks.

My question is if anyone can help me construct a good diet i can keep up with to at least stay in some shape for my 6-8 months of not being able too lift any weights for my upper body what so ever. Howerver, i am going to intensly work out my lower body for next season, as i may very likely be able to play by like mid season at the latest of next season (i am a catcher).

Also, i have talked to many people concerning this surgery, and what i am too look forward to during my painful rehab. But, if anyone is familiar with this surgery and has any imput i would really appreciate it.

Thanks very much,
Chris

P.S. it is a huge pain typing with just my left hand when i'm a natural righty LoL
 
sorry about your elbow, that must suck.....
my advice .... is just work on your legs and dont forget about your core muscles
abs and lower back would be good to strengthen so you will be ready to get back in the gym.

and dont get fat, good diet, and cardio
