Working Out!

[tina31 6]

Do any one know how soon after surgery can we start working out!!!

My Dr. advised 2 weeks. But it will take a whole month to heal

Depends on the excercise. You can walk/jog/elliptical immediately. Anything that strains your core I'd wait 4 weeks

My doc told me 6 weeks and im clear for anything.

six week freed for the gym, easy going for the first week. Then after no restrictions

Walk for the first month and then you could start anything I wanted to.

My current exercise plan:

• Kickboxing- Monday night
  
• Treadmill/ bike/ weight lifting- Tuesday night
  
• Water aerobics- Thursday night
  
• treadmill/bike/ weight lifting- Saturday morning.
  

I tried Zumba... just not ready for that yet!

Thanks everybody for your input I'm so ready to work out I'm ready to say down 95lbs...... I really need to not rush I know

Walking right away (night of surgery). Was told light to moderate exercise at 2-6 weeks post-op. Released to do whatever I wanted after 6 weeks. I probably jumped the gun a little and did somewhat rigorous exercise and lifting around 4 weeks when I should've been scaling it back a notch or two. I was probably pretty lucky and with that said, you should stick with the plan that your Dr gave you. Shame on me! I wish you the best "tina"!
