Whoop surgery day is in three days how exciting just wanting to know how long after surgery until u can start exercising like walking I've finally able to walk 5kms and wana hopefully do 10kms by end of April?

Hi! I'm scheduled on March 20. My doctor wants me to start walking right away. One month after surgery I "should" be cleared for all activities. I think you'll have no problem reaching your goal but I'm sure your surgeon will give you more specific instructions. Good luck!

Anyone due in a couple of days?

I was "due" 38 years ago with my baby!!!

all went well

oooooops - thats probably not what you meant!!!!

"almost immediately" after surgery you should be up and around walking slowly in the "halls" of the hospital

many/most people have gas - walking will help that

as soon as you feel up to it, a little more walking is good

i don't know about walking 3 miles right away

start off slowly, always listen to your body, how "it" feels

if you are getting tired/weak - don't push it

you just had major surgery

tummy is going to be healing for awhile

so watch it!!!

if you are feeling fine/good/no problem - walking is always a great excercise

some people feel well enough to go back to work within a day or two

your doc will tell you when you can do more "official" activity

good luck

speedy recovery
