1 week post op, ready to get back to gym!!!



Recommended Posts

I know I have to wait until at least next week to get back to the gym, but I've been going for a 30 minute walk for the last three days. I worked really hard pre-op for about 3 months to get used to go to the gym and seeing the results of working hard in the gym. I'm so excited to get going in the gym post-op, because I know it will really rev up my weight loss. I'm so fidgety and ready to start my new life!!!!!!!

As long as all you do at the gym is walk, you can go back. But stay away from anything that will cause stress. It is probably best to just walk at home or mall, or wherever you walk.

I've been back to the gym for almost a week, just walking on a treadmill and I'm pooped!! I got home the first day, took a shower, sat down and promptly fell asleep. I can imagine getting back to lifting next week, I might have to take a nap before I drive home!!!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
