Still early out for me (day 5 Post) — but trying to think ahead a bit. I really want to avoid the saggy skin if I can so wondering what folks did for exercise and how long did you wait? Obv I’ll wait til after two week appt and ask Dr . I want to try boxing...

I left it about five weeks before I supplemented 25-45 minutes per day's walking with some swimming.

Since Saturday Nov 18th, I have tried to have at least TWO hours swimming (breaststroke) PLUS 25 minutes chest-deep wading at my local pool.

It's forty years since I last used boxing as a component of my fitness plan.

Here's my exercise log for the last six weeks. Columns are labelled. (Second column is what shows on my fitness wrist-band for steps and strokes total.)

December 1 was when I was flying interstate and stuck in a rental car.

December 25 was the POOL SHUT DOWN for Christmas Day.

My speed varies a lot some days ... I amble and trickle along just absorbing time moving slowly some days.

Congratulations!! I hope all is going well. I have been super bad at exercising and my goal is to start getting into a routine. I am 6 months post-op and I don't think I've exercised more than 8 hours total since surgery. I know, I'm terrible. I've lost 99.8lbs in the last year, 85 of those pounds since surgery. I definitely need to tone but I don't have a ton of super saggy skin which is great also. I'm about 20lbs from goal weight but my main focus now is toning for sure. I would say make sure to wait for approval from your doctor before exercising but try to get into a routine. No need to be a slacker like me!!

I'm scheduled for surgery on the 10th. How are you feeling post op?
