Exercise "March sleevers" who is up & moving?
Curly Swirley replied to 521Diva's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My surgery was March 5th. At my 2-week check-up my doctor said my incisions looked great and after 4 weeks post-op I could do whatever I wanted as long as I didn't work my stomach/abs. So I started hitting weights the beginning of last week and I've felt amazing. I get most of my cardio in by walking during my breaks at work. I started my weight load off light with 10lb dumbbells but I've progressed on certain exercises to 15lbs. I actually worked chest, shoudlers, and triceps yesterday and am sore today, so I know I'm benefitting now. My next doctor's appointment is next Thursday, and I will weigh and update then. I've tried to stay away from the scales as much as possible so as to not discourage myself. I see and feel the inches falling off by my clothes. The weight is a number to me, and I try to see it as nothing more. Hope this was helpful! -
Surgery went beautifully a week ago. Been doing well on liquids this first week and looking forward to pureed foods.
Clothes getting big and can move around better already. Excited to be cleared for the gym and weight lifting. -
So, my surgery is tomorrow!
Super excited and nervous, but definitely ready for this step into a new me. -
One week down and one week to go on my pre-op diet. Getting more nervous and excited everyday
