I everyone, I am now five weeks post op. I feel great. I am from San Francisco. Today I am going to take all the junk off my treadmill and use it. I have been taking walks but not they are not long enough. I just wanted to introduce myself, and I look forward to sharing this journey with all of you. Please feel free to give me any advice on food, exercise etc. I need all the help I can get.

Hi Citygurl,

Kudos, for deciding to up your exercise! I am 8 days post op and haven't started exercising as of yet.

My plan is to start walking on Monday, twenty-thirty minutes and see how I feel.

This site is a treasure of info, and everyone is very supportive!

Welcome newie...

Thank you both for your support. Just got off treadmill. Did thirty minutes and burned 130 calories. Feel great. It wasn't so bad now that I have lost some weight. Looking forward to it tomorrow.

Welcome to the loser's bench!!! Enjoy your treadmill, the trick is to make it fun in some way (listen to music, watch tv, read a book if you can, do little challenges, etc). Take some time to browse through all the forums here, there are years of questions and answers out there.

Let us know if you have any specific questions
