wishfulaimee 16 Posted October 16, 2012 Hi everyone .... I am 3 weeks out... I want to go back to working out lightly like Zumba class. I feel good and realize I have to go easy. When did you start going back to exercising. Thanks for any answers you could give me (: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Katnroyal 225 Posted October 16, 2012 To go back to something like Zumba I was about six weeks out... At three weeks I was doing about ten minutes on the elliptical and speed walking around the block. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Territravel 217 Posted October 16, 2012 You can start an easy program, such as walking as soon as you feel up to it. Strenuous exercises, like weight lifting, should wait six weeks. Maybe, the Zumba fans on here can offer their opinions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JD7176 84 Posted October 17, 2012 I went back to Zumba at either 3 or 4 weeks out, but skipped the gyrating lol. I didn't move as I normally would....kinda eased back into it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kenni 39 Posted October 17, 2012 Wow dacing that way is too early at four weeks I was walking on the treadmill for an hour then at sixth week I started the elliptical so that increased to 2 hours a day. When I felt I could move around more I started zumba that was about at 8 weeks. So I started to alternate between treadmill and zumba or elliptical and zumba or treadmill and elliptical. Started at 299.8 and Im currently at 190 lbs at 9 months op Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
