Been swimming again from 2 weeks and walking everyday, and just been dancing at my sons school disco (its my job to embarrass him!)... but its tough, pre-op I was swimming 1km per day but currently I can only manage 500m before getting tired. I was advised by my surgeon not to lift weights until fully healed. Hope that helps?
I do Aquafit twice a week - at 'experienced' level. I went back after three weeks - the surgeon advised not to go during the simple fluid weeks as I wouldn't have sufficient calories. If I was despo he said I could gently swim sooner but I waited until the start of Week 4. I was fine x
Thanks ladies. I have been walking most days since I came out of hospital and although I don't have my 8 week check Until mid December wAnted to do more, especially with the weather becoming less walk friendly. I was swimming before the op so think I will try that next week as that will be week 4 x
