I was sleeved Nov 15th and was in the gym by Jan 4th-5th.... Go slow & learn your pace & limits...be safe. I love it! I go 5 days a week.

I was sleeved dec 5th n gyming two weeks later but walking before that

If you are 8 week out, then your surgeon should have cleared you now or will very shortly. When do you see him/her again? I was cleared at 6 week to resume exercise.

I'm 4 weeks out as of tomorrow and started back at the gym first with walking and then when I hit around 2 and a half weeks I added some running in, but only to the point of comfort. Any time there was any discomfort at all in my midsection I knew that meant stop.
