Yes, you should only do light exercise and don't walk to far, am week 4 and still have low energy mornings are the worst.

After my RNY gastric bypass surgery, I walked 30 minutes each day. This is the recommended amount. Before surgery I would get hot, sweaty and get a little winded doing this exercise. At 2 weeks post-op, my body was performing much like it did during pre-op.

Now I am 3 years post-op, and my body is performing very differently.

When I was experiencing the faint feeling, I started drinking more Water and, THANK GOD, I have not felt that anymore. And I agree take short walks, and don't push yourself to hard. BETTER SMALL AND SAFE, THAN ATTEMPTED LONG AND HARM

When you go out to walk make sure you have a bottled Water with you and you won't feel that way no more.... I did the ultimate no no I didn't know that where ever I go I must bring water I went to the store without it and got sick could've fainted right in the middle of the street but I made it to the store and grabbed me a bottled water and sat down til I felt better
