I would check with your doc first. I was cleared for the gym at 2 weeks post op but it was too soon. I think I started after a month post op. I still walked outside near my house & at lunch. I wouldn't push it just yet but everyone is different. Check with your doc but I'm sure going to the gym is ok.

I have my first 5K this morning. It's only 3.1 miles & I'm walking it but I never thought I would actually be doing this!

Had physical therapy and at 3:00 I have pool therapy. Hope this helps, I need to start going to the gym, but with my hip bone likes to go out of place pretty much constant, and my sacrum is not staying down and stay in place

Still can't be in the pool.I have a major jones for Water aerobics. Between my stroke like symptoms and my chronic pain, my exercise has been seriously curtailed....and my weight loss reflects it. Nothing to do but accept it for right now.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
