Abdominal Exercise Inquiry!

[MagicalLotus 1]

Hi all Tiffany here. Im curious as to what abdominal exercises lapbanders have been doing to tone up their mid sections. I was told that sit ups were not a good thing for me to do,because of my port placement. I am really ready to get my mid section "in check", im really thinking yoga would do the trick. Anyone else have any feed back on this subject?

Good question. I will try to google it and see what I come up with.

Hi Tiffany, yes yoga will not only help you tone your abdominal area but your whole body. It's a great stress reducer. I also do Pilate, which does involve working your core abdominal area. Good luck and have fun trying different things.

I have always done crunches. Sit ups are not good for your neck and back. I now do crunches on a weight machine. My doctor had never had an issue with me doing ab exercises. He says I can't possibly damage my port.
