Exercising - Sleeved July 2Nd



Recommended Posts

I was trying to decide between the gym and the treadmill on really slow or walking in the mall consistently for 30-45 minutes. Any sleevers close to my date out there? What are you doing for exercise?

What did your Dr. tell you? At one week post op my doc just wanted me walking. Nothing else. By 2 weeks I could start cycling and elliptical, but at a relatively easy pace. I doubt there is a big difference between mall walking and treadmill walking....whatever you enjoy the most. I prefer outside.

OMG It seems so soon to be doing that much exercise. I think you should take it easy. Definitely walk it out but don't over do it!

Thanks for the responses. I walked on the treadmill...very slowly...for 30 minutes. My goal was to get in some excercise and it is done at one time. I walk around the house and move around but Im not sure if that truly counted as the 30-45 minutes that he told me to walk or bike daily.

      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
