Okay, I finally made my decision to get the lapband and had my procedure on 06/27/2013 and my first fill is set for 07/25/13.. I'm a bit nervous from all of the posts with the concerns on fills and the pain associated; but hoping for an uneventful transition afterwards. I love working out but most of what I have read from my doctors office is stating that I should wait about 4 weeks before resuming workout.. Is that true for everyone else? I at least want to get on the treadmill or attend my weekly dance class. Any input on working out that anyone can share would be appreciated...

I had my surgery 6/18 and seen my surgeon yesterday mine said treadmill is fine but wait 4 weeks total to lift but some surgeons are diffrent you can call and ask just to be sure

My doctor said the same thing, walking or stationary bicycle until six weeks, then I could do more strenuous work and weights.

Great, thanks for the input!! I plan on starting slow and beginning with the treadmill on Monday, that will help me continue with my workout flow that I enjoy so much.. Very excited about my new weight loss journey getting under way..
