Phoenix79 452 Posted June 11, 2013 I haven't had surgery yet, but my surgeon wants no lifting more than 10lbs for 6 weeks! Torture for a gardener like me, but necessary to protect your new sleeve! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Itsme! 98 Posted June 12, 2013 I had no lifting restrictions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skrubabilen 41 Posted June 12, 2013 Nothing over 5 for first two weeks. Nothing over 10 for weeks 3 & 4. The worry is about your sleeve, the surgery sites and hernias. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
