I am 5 weeks Post Op. When can I start doing harder work outs, using weights, doing sit ups and stuff like that? I forgot to ask my doctor last week.

Thank you.

I had the same question almost a month ago. The first day of my fill, which was at 6 weeks post op (3 weeks ago) I was given the okay for strenuous workout. However, if I were you I'd ask my surgeon/nurse or PA. They will surely let you know.

That's really a good question for your doctor because I'm only 3 weeks out and I can begin lifting weights again and I've been able to do high impact Zumba as my body allows in the past 3 weeks.. call your doc!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
