Walking how much are yall doing



Recommended Posts

I'm 5 days post op and I'm trying to walk but it hurts like hell and I get so so tired. After I just want to crawl into bed. How long and how often are y'all walking. I only get 3 walks in a day.

I'm 4 days post-op and I have been walking 2-3 times per day for about 10-15 mins each walk. Anything more tires me out too much. I know that recovery takes some time and I know that each day I will feel a little stronger than the day before. In a couple of weeks I figure I'll be moving along quite well...

I was in the hospital for two days post op and I walked for about 5 minutes every 90 minutes or so while I was awake.

For the next week after that, I watched a LOT of TV and walked for 5 minutes in between each show. I also did point and flex exercises with my legs..The threat of DVT petrified me.

I walk three times a day for about 15 minutes. Today I walked around the mall for an hour to help my daughter find prom shoes and I knew I over did it. Won't do that again.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
