Hi Alicita and welcome

what surgery did you have , i had ds had 9 holes and very bad muscle damage, i started swimming at 6 weeks and today have done some rowing machine and cross trainer exercises in the gym

if you are well enough then swimming is a really good starting point but depending on what you've had done your insides might need a little more healing for weights

well done and good luck x

daisydaye · 21st February, 2012

welldone and congrats. Goodluck on the weight loss.

hi hun welcome to the site x with most surgeries weights shouldnt be used for at least 6 weeks.. thats what i was told.. so if you are using weights as been advised then be careful.. as we heal slower on the inside xx

Alicita72 · 21st February, 2012

Thank you all. And yes the nutritionist at the Doctor's office did tell me to get started on the dumbells. The doctor said nothing more than 10 lbs
