RNY Gastric Bypass Missing my bike!

[Peterborough Guy]

I am really missing my bike, but as I am just 2 weeks post op, they don't recommend I go on it for another 4 weeks, until I see my surgeon.

Walking is fine, but no where near as enjoyable as cycling.

Any other suggestions peeps please.

I'm with ya pg. I just spoke to my health team and was told absolutely nothing more strenuous than walking until I am six weeks post op!

Boy am I fed up about it. I know that it is the right thing but I've never been very good at being patient.

Well you could go on your bikes and risk hernias which are very very painful....

Or you could just be patient and walk. Start planning your cycle routes for when you get the all clear, use the time to think about what you want from a fitness regime later on ...

Time will go quickly, just be patient xx
