Zumba, Good Idea Or No?



Recommended Posts

Starting on Monday and will be 4 weeks post op. Do you think it will be too strenous or I should be ok? Also hoping this will kick start my weight loss so I can lose more.

I have Zumba for my Wii and I just started. I try to do 3-4 songs at a time. My surgery was April 16th.

I would start slow and ease your way into it. Just listen to your body, it should let you know if it is too soon. I love zumba =)

I bought this yesterday but haven't opened it up yet. Worth keeping?

I also ordered one called Active Life Explorer. I've had this dang Wii for like 4 years, and except for maybe 3 times, we've only ever used it as a Netflix receiver. It's pretty bad that I need to be in front of the TV to work out. ;)

so I bought zumba last week and have done it 3 times since it arrived. I am only on the step by step video and at first I was only able to get thru half of it. Today I did the whole video. Not as enthusiastic as them but I did it. Tommow I start on that actual video !!!

I did two classes this week, I didn't like the first instructor but the second instructor today wow. I couldn't do everything but I broke a sweat and I feel it in my body lol. Kicked my ass in a good way, I did notice though that drinking Water and moving makes me have nausea so that may be an issue. It was like getting motion sickness after drinking Water lol. But other than that I'm pretty good. Figured I'd start small and just stick to two classes a week or at least one and build up.

      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.

        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!
