gmanbat 5,889 Posted January 29, 2013 I waited a month but I'm 64. I'm over a year out and still baby my stomach muscles. Having a less than perfect gut is better than hernias. When I do push-ups it is still delicate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dark Ranger 12 Posted January 29, 2013 About two weeks for me. Since it was a laparoscopic surgery the weight lifting restrictions were very short. They advised me not to go overboard right away, but that was more a concern for me passing out than harming something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm on tread mill now walking for 10 to 15 min a day. Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
