Im almost a month post op..(will be 1month august 18th) and I've come to a stall already. I got the clearance to start working out, but have no idea what to besides walk and that is really boring. I cant afford a gym at the moment or a trainer..what home exercises do any of you guys do? That can help jump start my weightloss again...

How much exercise have you done in the past?

Hardly any. Just walking mainly..I do have 1 ten lb weight but have no idea what i can do with it..

Well then you need to start slowly. Walking maybe boring, but it is where you should start. Start out walking a short distance and increase by a little each day. I would wait on using the ten pound weight. The worst thing you can do is too much too soon. You will wake up sore and not want to continue to exercise.

Yes! I heard about those community zumba classes..i think it was like 5 dollars or something. I never went pre op because i didnt want to embarrass myself, but after losing 41 lbs total, it gave me a little confidence boost lol so i might just have to try that!

You can go on youtube and look up Shaun Ts beach body, or rocking body and do that as a workout...its basic dancing you can do it in the comfort of your home and most important its fun...then if you search on youtube other exercises they have that too....

I refuse to pay for the gym, so I do my things at home and walk, and just staying active....Hope this helps good luck
