Today I am 6 weeks post op! I have been walking at least 4 times a week! But I wanna take up a few notches and head back to the gym! I am really wanting to lift weights more then just do lots of cardio. I don't really have anymore abdominal pain or anything. Has anybody had any bad experiences with harder excersice around this time frame? Thanks!

Just had my surgery done on Feb 24th. I also had similar feelings before my surgery but I then I remembered my obesity is killing me anyways, a slow death. When I get older I can be put in a nursing home, diabetic with arthritis and who knows what else! A burden to my family and friends. It's normal to be nervous, worry about long term effects. It's been a tough few weeks but I still don't regret it. I was going down a wrong path, I needed help and decided to change. I lost 10 lbs on the pre op diet, then I lost 12 lbs my first week after surgery. I am already building back up my self confidence I know in a couple of months I will be sexy again... Hahaha
Btw I was on my period the day of my surgery. It's not a big deal, your nurses will be great!
Good luck

I was sleeved on 2/24/14, the first week was really tough, the second week was a little better. It is my 3rd week and I feel fantastic, dropped a little over 30lbs ????

I'm 22 full time college student, full time worker. I have had weight issues my whole life. I was sick and tired of being obese, not fitting in my desk at school/ the movie theater. It was embarrassing. I never had much energy, my knees and hips would kill me after a long day at work. I tried dieting, exercise, but I always came up with excuses. I was embarrassed to go to the gym because the same people that work out all the time would have noticed I just keep getting bigger and bigger. I never considered surgery until my cousins wife had it done. She looked amazing. She also told me how much happier she was. I began my journey in 9/13, I had to do a lot of stuff before my insurance would consider approving me for surgery. They finally approved me! When I went in for EGD I found out I had H Pylori and a hiatal hernia. Finally I had my surgery 2/24/14. I have already lost 25lbs including my pre-op diet. I am so excited to see what happens in the future. Excited to go back to the gym, decided to make better food choices. It has given me a second chance! I will not go back to the old Heather. This is the new me

I think you guys will like the sleeve. Had mine on Feb 24th. I lost 10 lbs on pre-op diet and I lost 12 lbs my first week. I am trying not to weigh myself everyday because it's so exciting. Lol but I know I have lost a ton more since then
