When can I start running?



Recommended Posts

How long after (post op) did you start to jog? My dr said about two months. What did you do?

about that amount of time. Basically it was to heal up inside, the bouncing on the pavement caused a little pain around the incision area. I think I waited about a month but not more than six weeks. I walked on the treadmill a lot in the mean time.

I stuck in a stall I think! I don't what I'm doing wrong. I like to run so I'm eager to be able to start running.

Stalls are typical I stall for 2/3 weeks at a time

Then lose 5-10 lbs in a week

4 weeks jogging lightly on low impact treadmill, no pain and Dr. said it was good to go so long as there wasn't any pain that came up.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
