why dont you just call your dr in the morning and ask just to be safe

we all are different with different physical ailments and situations.

your dr would know what is best for you

I was doing the treadmill day 4 and about day 11 moved to the elliptical. I don't hold on to the elliptical handles so I needed more core strength to keep my balance. Day 15 I could start swimming again.

I was told just walking for 6 weeks, but walk a little further every time. I'm cleared for exercise in 2 weeks :) can't wait!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
