I am just past 5 weeks post op and I have started lifting heavy weights again! I am curious to hear how anybody else has done with weight lifting after gastric sleeve surgery! Are you able to build muscle? Does it take longer to build muscle then before? I am a lot weaker than I was when when I started lifting before surgery which I expected. I am just hoping it doesn't take me a lot longer to build muscle now that I have had the surgery. I am doing my best to get as much Protein in as possible!
