So I'm a month and 10 days post-op, stitches-less, ready and rarin' to go! I just started working out on Monday, 20 mins cardio, planks, push ups. light machines, some core work and 10 more minutes of cool down cardio. ive done that 3 days this week, and got in a 5 mile walk as well, i guess my question /concern is if anyone else started working out and can tell me how it effected their weight loss, and do i have to steer clear of directly workin out my abs because of the band?...im 26 lbs and 24 inches down, 1 month and 10 days post-op, should i be doing anything else to promote dropping more pound-age? lol thanks!!!!!

When i got banded, about 2-3 weeks in i was really sore around my biggest incision, there were days when i felt like i was gonna rip my stitches open if i stood up straight! I put bacatracin on them and around them to soften to skin and to subside to itchiness and it helped, dont be afraid to like put a glob of it over it if youre home just watchin tv. it passes!! i promise! good luck !
