What exercise?

[soph3]

Hi,

I'm going in for my sleeve in 24 days (can't wait!!) so I was just wondering what kind of exercise people are/have been doing within the first 6 months post op?

Thanks in advance

A lot of walking and then some Zumba. After 6 months I upped it and do 5 hours of classes a week. I now love yoga

Nothing too heavy at first... Overtime just build up... Wish I'd done this when I had my first op... I wouldn't be in this mess now. All the best. X

Hi
I'm only 5 weeks post op & i started the gym at 3 weeks ( but i do have a very physical job), only doing 1 hour x3 times a week, doctor examined me & said wounds had healed so go for it !!!
hope your as quick a healer & good luck

Physical job, swimming and walking. That's it really, at some point I think I will have to start investing time at the gym, but I'm good for now I'm 5 1/2 months out. Been swimming 2-3 times a week since week 4.

Thanks everyone, I will be walking walking walking as soon as possible after getting sleeved, I've always hated the gym (cos of my size) but hopefully once I start losing weight ill feel a but more confident. X

I've been walking more than I used to................ but I know I must do more.
Like Soph3 I've always avoided gyms because of my size and all the beautiful people in leotards etc!! I think maybe I'll try swimming............... lol I'm full of good ideas but hopeless at putting them into practice!!
