How Soon After Sleeve Can Ya Resume High Impact Cardio?

[healinghands50 1]

How soon is too soon? Surgery 6/19/12. My exercise has been a goal weight saver! I burn 500 calories in 1 hour on eliptical bike. Do I kiss it good bye or is this something i will be able to resume after surgery?

Treadmill, elliptical and, bike I was cleared in the first week. Stuff like weights, jogging, zumba, or any kind of p90x type crap was after 6 weeks. But I am sure your dr is different than mine. I would call and ask Monday to see what he says.

Mine said I could only do walking for the first 4 weeks. He did say I could get in the pool after 2-3 weeks after my incisions were healed/not scabby. I've been swimming since about 2-1/2 weeks out. I'll be 5 weeks on Monday & am going to start at the gym again then & play it by ear as far as I feel. I have been to the gym a few times just to use the treadmill & recumbent bike & went much slower than before surgery & just listened to my body to not overdo it.

Thank you for your feed back. I am in this daily momentum of 1 hour eliptical bike. My surgeon says I may go slow at first and build up to where I am now. My surgery is on Tuesday June 19th

I was wondering the same thing. I'm signed up for a 250 mike bike ride for charity in September. My surgery is 6/25 I'm worried I will not be able to take in enough Water and fuel for that long of a ride. Any advice or stories?
