I am just curious to see what everyone's workout routine is? Please include how long post op you are thanks guys!

i am 12 weeks out. I'm working on being able to do a 5k and today was my first day on the treadmill being able to do that. I try to do the treadmill 3 - 5 times a week plus i strap on the heart rate monitor when doing lawn work (I've burned >600 cals just doing the front or the back).

I was sleeved 6/6/13 & was 230. I'm now 11 weeks post op & I'm down to 193. 37 lbs lost. I do 30 mins minimum on the treadmill or elliptical. If treadmill I do 1 minute sprints every 4 minutes. If doing the elliptical the resistance & climb go up & down for 4 minute intervals each. Then I do strength training. Abs, arms & legs for about 30 mins. I do this 5 days a week. I'm freaking out seeing people who have gotten to a goal of 100 lbs lost in six months. I don't see myself getting to goal in six months. My suggested BMI is 125 lbs. It took me two weeks to get from 194 to 193! Don't know how they're doing it. If you find out let me know...

Here's a similar link that was started recently that may be a good resource as well....

I am about 21 months post op and my routine is in that link towards the end I think.

20 months out - yoga, bike riding, walking, swimming, swordfighting, gardening, hula-hoops, devil and fairy sticks, body contact juggling, hiking, SUP.

I can't say I have a 'do this on this day' routine, except for yoga. I do yoga everyday and often ride my bike and from there I do whatever I can, whenever I can.

For me it is just being able to do. I had missed that like a flower would miss the sun. I will get myself into some pretty silly situations now (like yoga on a SUP board in a bayou in Houston, or stuck 20 ft up a tree, or quite literally so far into a local nature preserve we came out the other end and had to call hubby to come get us!!!), just for the hell of it, and it only occurs to me later that I am pretty sore or breathing hard or sweaty - which is awesome.

Oh yes this! I should plug that into MFP all this time!

I'm 10 weeks out as of this past Monday. I am also training for a 5k and do intervals of 1 minute walking and 35 seconds jogging for about 3 miles, 3-4 times a week, outside. I've been walking over 3 miles since day 7 post-op. Need to start adding weights soon!

hey there i am 4 weeks post op, i started the gym on week 2, just doing the tredmill and eliptical... about 2 miles a day on one or the other, just at a slow walk pace

i had my first softball game at 3 weeks and had no issues

i started doing the stair climber yesterday, and let me tell you I LOVE IT! i was seriously sweating my butt off after 5 min of this... i jumped off and was like so winded... walked around a bit to catch my breath and came back and did 3 min of stedy up stair movement, jumped off again and did this for about 5 times total and i was so pooped!!! i felt great tho.

tonight i am going to see about doing some weights and tummy inbetween

there is a lady weight room and i may come in and out... the guys there i am trying to get friendly with but its like i am a new kid on the block cant jump in the middle lol

I am 24 wks out and i try to go to the gym 4 days a wk. i do the treadmill or elliptical for at least 45 min. i also do the bike sometimes 30 min

I was sleeved 3/25/13. I do a 45 min step class twice a week, 50 minute circuit class 3 times a week (alternates weights and cardio in 90 second intervals), and 40 minutes on the elliptical at home on the remaining days or if I can't make it to the gym. I am meeting with a personal trainer on Tues and will likely sign up for sessions twice a week - it's time to really focus on muscle mass now.

I am 2 years out. I spend 60-90 minutes doing martial arts twice a week and 45-60 minutes walking twice a week. I have a sedentary office job and a 4-year old at home. I try to get between 8k-10k steps a day.

Gym 4 days per week (60 - 90 minutes) - cardio classes, elliptical, weight machines and free weights.I joined the gym when I was I was 6 months out.

I am 1 year 2 months post op. Today is my first day starting my new workout regimen. I will doing metabolic strength training with my coach 3x a week. The other 2 days I will walk half hour in the AM. Lucille Robers will be used for elliptical use only or maybe a fun zumba class! Its time to get lean with a flat belly!

I'm six months post op. My routine includes 45 mins of cardio on the tredmill at a very steep incline at about 3.6 mph. Sometimes i use the elliptical at level 14 (lifetouch machine). Then directly following I do circuit strength training. I do this about 3-4 times a week. Tues I will be starting a spin class!!! Really excited for this
