I thought I would start a thread that might help keep us accountable for exercising. Post on here what you did today for exercise. Come back daily and use this thread as an exercise log.

I did 4 miles on the elliptical. Getting ready for my first 5K this weekend.

Wow that's great Shannalee! Good luck with your 5k!

My boyfriend and I walked a mile this evening...without the kids! Lol it was so nice outside finally. Earlier today i did some squats as well. One month post op and starting to feel like i have a little more energy than i did 41lbs ago. Thats a plus.

Hi all please can someone tell me when I can start the gym am 15 days post op

I would check with your doc first. I was cleared for the gym at 2 weeks post op but it was too soon. I think I started after a month post op. I still walked outside near my house & at lunch. I wouldn't push it just yet but everyone is different. Check with your doc but I'm sure going to the gym is ok.

Yesterday I did water aerobics and today is my day off......YA! I have my first 5K tomorrow so I get to rest today.

Thank u

I cut grass w/push mower & now I'm feeling tired 30days post op.. gotta keep going tho!!

Walked two miles around the dog park....still not cleared for swimming until my weird neurological symptoms abate.

I have my first 5K this morning. It's only 3.1 miles & I'm walking it but I never thought I would actually be doing this!

Congrats!! Have a good time tomorrow and enjoy your accomplishment.

Did some physical therapy exercises, and some partial sit ups. Tomorrow I start pool therapy.

Had physical therapy and at 3:00 I have pool therapy. Hope this helps, I need to start going to the gym, but with my hip bone likes to go out of place pretty much constant, and my sacrum is not staying down and stay in place

Still can't be in the pool.I have a major jones for water aerobics. Between my stroke like symptoms and my chronic pain, my exercise has been seriously curtailed....and my weight loss reflects it. Nothing to do but accept it for right now.
