6 Weeks Post Op! Best Workouts?



Recommended Posts

And 40 pounds down! I feel and look like a totally different person. I'm thrilled with the results of this surgery. So glad I was able to go through with it! What are some of the best work outs in your opinion? I'm trying to work some new stuff into the usual walking/hiking/elliptical workouts

Do you have a gym membership? Most gyms have classes, try one out. I go to a few classes a week. My instructor is amazing and you really burn the calories. At my boot camp class on Sat I burned 840 calories!

Recommend a zumba, step-aerobics or spin class. To tone up your total body I recommend a bodypump/group wt. lifting class. On average you will burn around 600-650 per class in either of the classes mentioned. I forgot to mention a curcit training class and you can do your own curcit training. 10 min on eliptical, 10 min on threadmill and 10 min on wts, do this for two rotations and you've burned 800 caories BAM.....

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
