What's your workout routine?



Recommended Posts

Wow, you are all amazing! I'm only a month out, and two weeks out from gallbladder surgery, but I just can't even imagine exercising right now. I do walk about a mile a day right now to work and out lunch, but I'm really looking forward to implementing some of your routines when I'm allowed.

I wear a Fitbit and do lots of walking throughout the day. Also, at least 4 days at the gym/week an hour a time. Alternate days of swimming/water jogging with weights and weights/treadmill. I started back again at week 6. Am 2 months and 2 days out. Before surgery, I was doing 6 days/week... Hoping to get back to that:)

<p>I don't really have a "schedule".. I go either once or twice day. Either the gym, or at home.. I run a lot.. I do weights.. I cycle.. I try to get it in whenever I can. Some days I run at lunch and weight train at night..</p>

<p> </p>

<p>I have always worked out, so I was walking when I got home from surgery. I was jogging at 4 days post op, and I think I went back to spinning 2 weeks after with light weights. At a month out I was back to my full schedule, with mild weights.. back to heavy weightlifting at 6 weeks.</p>

I'm just a week from 3 months post op and have been working out 4-5 days per week, and I usually do some non structured activities on the weekends. I have been doing workouts at home, videos from youtube and my cables on demand option as well as HIT circuits and resistance bands. I mix it up every night for something different. I plan on getting out and walking again after all the snow melts, I have a chiweenie and he loves his walks when I get home from work. I hope to work up to running this spring.

Just under 3.5 months out from sleeve surgery.

It took me longer than I wanted to get back into a routine. Also had a hernia repaired at the time of sleeve surgery.......hoping the doc gives me the go for weight training on my next visit, next week.

Bought a fitbit prior to surgery and am trying to reach the point where I hit 10K per day.....every day.....work days and off days.

Will be adding some weight training as doc and time permits.

10K everyday.....and with training 3 times per week is that I want to settle in on.

      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! 😞
