When we're significantly overweight (and the older we get), exercises that stress the knees can be not just difficult -- they can do considerable damage. Be careful out there! 

Try some bar work with a variety of knee bends. They're really modified squats. Start with a simple squat facing and holding onto the bar feet forward, shoulder width apart. With back straight, lower slightly and return to standing position. Go slowly and start with maybe ten. I do 100 with my feet in different positions and alternate with four different leg lifts, same number. Has really increased my knee strength. 

If you have a good trainer or physical therapist, they can explain this more specifically. 

Thank you, I have 3 Therapists all who are working different aspects of my recovery. I am doing heal taps bending with my recovering knee and taping my good leg on the floor, they are getting easier every day. I was just given a new exercise today using an ankle weight, I have to sit at the edge of the chair , raise my leg and then slowly lower it back down. It’s doable but very shaky going back down for now.
